I have always enjoyed this magazine, but you can find it cheaper directly from the magazine publisher.

The articles are well-written, the photography is on par, and the subject matters are diverse. It is a must for me!

Essence is definitely one of the top Black woman's magazines and a great magazine in general geared toward the Black community. The subject nature is very diverse and I buy the magazine when there's an article that interests me. Normally the articles are informative and have a focus and objective. There are standard columns- my favorite is "In the Spirit" which always offers words of encouragement which we need daily especially in the kind of world we live in today. Essence is an all in one magazine that focus on woman's issues as they relate to health, education, personal relationships, family, beauty, fashion, hair & skin care just to mention the common ones. What attracts me to the magazine is that is has plenty of details and the articles have great coverage. I enjoy the controversy that surrounds some of the issues, the discussions and I like to compare the magazine to other magazines in its category since I don't think all women of color can relate to Essence. However, I recommend Essence for those who are interested in race and culture awareness and also for the fashion, skin, health and beauty tips.

For many years, I've seen this magazine in the grocery store checkout line counters, and I have flipped through the pages. One day I decided to get a subscription, and I'm glad I did. The magazine is beautiful, ethnic, and it has wonderful articles. It is informative and educational about relationships and being healthy. In its attempt of positiveness, it is an invalueable tool for girls of any age.

As for the stars they interview, you do learn about them. In my opinion, we will never truly learn how these celebrities are. The articles are simply a glimpse and not at all the true sense of a person, but it gives you an idea if you're curious or have doubts about certain people.

If you decide to get this subscription, get it based on the decision to better yourself and not because of the celebrity interviews; even though in some ways they are a plus. Enjoy.

Joy.
