Marie Claire Reviews

Marie Claire is not the best nor the worst of women's magazines. It does give you more information than the latest style of shoes, just not much more. I read this magazine, but I'm not proud of it. It does try to include women of all looks and sizes in its articles, but the models in the pictorials are a different story. This ...  Read the complete review

Ok, first of all I used to love Marie Claire. Remember when you were younger, and reading some older ladies Cosmopolitan, or sneaking a look at More! to see the "position of the fortnight" was like, really exciting, and gave you an idea of a grown up woman's world and S-E-X. Well, I don't because my mum read Marie Claire, and ...  Read the complete review

Never before did I think that I would find a magazine that could hold my attention span for more than 10 minutes.It is full of things I never thought I would find in a magazine.It shows you some of the plights people face in this world,that is just not recognised by the English Media, who seemingly completely ignore some of these controversial ...  Read the complete review

If somebody produced a magazine like Marie Claire but without the hundred or so fashion pages it would be the top seller. Why do all the magazine editors/publishers think women want to look at hundreds of pages of designer labels? Most of my friends dive onto my copy of Marie Claire when I buy it but nobody is interested in the fashion. Take that ...  Read the complete review

The best on the UK market anyway. For sheer quantity of readable material with a reasonably broad appeal this must be the UK winner. My gripe with most magazines is that I can get through them in 30 minutes flat, but, at the very least, Marie Claire offers value for money with a wide range of articles on the widest range of topics you'll ...  Read the complete review

I only buy Marie Claire when I've read the other intelligent womens magazines (like Cosmopolitan, Red, She) and I'm bored but I'm often impressed by the standard of journalism. However this month there didn't seem to be much worth reading and the fashion section, which is too expensive for me anyway, wasn't particularly ...  Read the complete review

Well, what can I say? Despite its reputation as a magazine for people that have fluff for brains, Marie Claire is one of the most well balanced magazines that I have ever had the pleasure to read. It has more fashion, beauty and celebrites than you can shake the proverbial stick at, right next to hard-hitting issues from all over the world. ...  Read the complete review

Marie Claire has some interesting and topical articles, but why does it have so many booooring fashion pages. I bought the platinum issue, and right bang in the middle were wadges of boring, 'suitable for anorectics only' fashion. Why oh why, does there have to be so much of it? If you took it out, there wouldn't be much else. ...  Read the complete review

This is one womens magazine that really stands out from the rest. The difference being is that it actually takes more than half an hour to read and is interesting and informative as well as being fun but without having to resort to articles about sex the whole time like most other mags seem to feel the need to do. Other magazines seem to ...  Read the complete review

Is this the best womens magazine on the market or what! I have a monthly subscription to Marie Claire and must say its worth every penny! It takes me ages to get through the hundreds of pages packed with informative articles which are well written and have excellent photography to accompany them. Then there is all the bang up to day ...  Read the complete review

I have fallen in love. No, not with a shampoo, but with this fantastic mag, which I have been reading for only a few issues but have already become addicted. As a 17 year-old I guess I am probably one of the younger readers of Marie Claire, but it really does hit the spot for me. This is a refreshingly different, not at all frothy and very ...  Read the complete review

I purchased Marie Claire this month for a change . Wow , i was amazed at how good it was . Priced at 2.70 it is slightly dearer than other ladies magazines i've bought but it is much better quality and is much more mature . The content of the feature articles were really factual and well written . There was a large section covering fashion and ...  Read the complete review

Are you sick of magazines telling you how to find out how to have the perfect orgasm,(and lets face it, where is the fun in reading about it?)then this is the magazine for you! It does have the usual glossy features but they are presented in a less cheesy way than some other monthly mags. There are the usual fashion, beauty and lifestyle ...  Read the complete review

This used to be by far the best women's magazine around with serious articles about topics never covered anywhere else. A change of editor a year ago, has moved the magazine notably back towards the frivolous fashion and sex style of other monthlies. Not being interested in spending hundreds of pounds on designer labels, half the magazine ...  Read the complete review

You must buy the August edition of Marie Clair even if you don't like the content of the magazine the free gift is absolutely fabulous! This month you get a great handbag free and it is the latest style, I have been using mine since I got it (and I could even fit my umberella in it - essential for this lovely uk summer weather). ...  Read the complete review

Knowing I had a boring night in alone, I picked up Marie Claire for 2 reasons. 1 was that I had read a really good review, and 2 it had a freebie!!! And a very useful one at that! I found it a really interesting read. The July issue had Latin Fever with Ricky Martin and the next big supermodel. Reading the article made me think twice ...  Read the complete review

I used to really enjoy Marie Claire, I thought the investigative reporting was fantastic and really informative and I always enjoyed the biographical articles at the back. However, these days, Marie Claire is advert followed by advert followed by advert. The clothes are so expensive that the "average" person has absolutely no chance of ...  Read the complete review

This is what it is like reading Marie Claire nowadays: Big star on front cover. Advert. Advert. Advert. Worthy piece about one-legged African witches who are working in coal mines. Advert. Advert. Advert. Too-long interview with famous person who I have no interest in. Advert. Advert. 'I slept with my mother's boyfriend's ...  Read the complete review

Marie Claire gets bigger every month. The free gifts get more elaborate, and its stuffed with samples too. But that's not why I buy it. Marie Claire tackles issues other womens mags sweep under the carpet. Female circumcision, child brides, women sold into slavery by their families. Its a shocking world out there, and Marie Claire brings it to ...  Read the complete review

My favourite magazine-which I don't have to buy as I get to read my daughter's. She never misses a month thankfully! Even though the fashion is aimed at a younger woman I love to see what the latest trends are. I can always dream! I do enjoy the features though and they are usually well researched and well written. I like the way that ...  Read the complete review
