One to leave on the newsagent’s shelf…

Back in the 2000s, I was an avid Red reader and subscriber. It was full of great articles from and about inspiring, brilliant women, as well as intelligent and thought provoking pieces of journalism. A far cry from just top 20’s of dresses, shoes and lipsticks etc which made up its competitors’ pages. Sadly, I lost touch with Red until two weeks ago, when I bought an edition at the airport for travelling home.

I was gutted. Gone was the fantastic journalism. Gone was the brilliant individualism and spirit that made it such a compelling read 20 years ago. What I found was (you guessed it) page upon page of top 20s and articles like what therapists want you to know. A pale shadow of what it used to be and certainly not worth £5.99. Come on, Red, you are better than this!

RED magazine is not what it used to be

RED magazine is not what it used to be. I guess all print mags are having a tough time, but the paper is now very thin and the layout looks more Prima than a luxury brand. The thumbnail pics they use of contributors and writers seem tiny and out of focus. It doesn't feel glossy any more. March 22 issue is very thin - used to be a bumper fashion month. What's happened ?

Free gift rip off

I do like Red magazine but when I ordered a 6 monthly subscription for a free gift of Rodial mascara and eye pencils I didn't expect to receive a broken pencil and mascara which had no brush and was sol old it had dried up to nothing! What a rip off
