Made-Up is a zine for targeting young women, age 16+. It explores the beauty myths embedded in western culture and highlights the social implications caused by cultural constructions. Made-Up encourages women to review these beauty ideals rather than consume and conform. The zine features thought-provoking articles combined with mixed media collage to illustrate a variety of beauty myths and cosmetic issues. It comes with an a3 poster and 3 postcard inserts. The zine is designed to be a part of an on-going series, focussing on different social topics in each issue.
I took this project forward and exhibited it at Smorgasbord, the 2nd year Bucks degree show, for BA Hons Graphic Arts.
