A reliable source...

Seventeen was part of my high school life, I remember eagerly flipping the pages with my girl friends when the new issue arrived each month. What's Seventeen all about? It covers beauty advice, health issues, real life situations, love, fashion designs, and other fun stuff. Each issue is packed with about 140 pages of information and advertisements. Seventeen has served teenagers for years in publishing informative articles and also some controversial articles from a parent's point of view. However, these articles also help to open the door and minds of teens, to form their own opinions in life and decision making.
I remember all my friends looking over Seventeen magazines during prom season to be up-to-date with the new trends. Since we wanted to look HOT for our dates and better than the other girls. The magazine covered a whole article devoted to prom. Like it had a section advising what you should bring to prom for example, oily pads from Neutrogena were recommended so when u get all sweaty from dancing you can apply it with out smearing your make up and it will take away the shininess from your face. They also mention fun activities to do after prom with out consuming alcohol. Pictures of dresses were also shown with different body types so that one can see what style fits best with their body type. Seventeen is basically a source that someone can turn to for the new trends, gossips and advice.
