Beauty bias
Indie Magazine Project
About the Project
Goal: This magazine was created with the theme of “beauty bias”, addressing various issues such as makeup techniques, appearance-focused ideals, plastic surgery, and extreme dieting. While these may not seem like major problems in today’s society, they are becoming increasingly implicit yet significant concerns. It seeks to deliver a message encouraging people to love and cherish themselves as they are. The aim is to inspire self-esteem and promote the pursuit of beauty in a healthy and self-affirming way.
