This shows a comparison of magazine covers of the same celebrity, from when they were teens to young women. All three of these women started their careers at an early age and over time have evolved into the types of women that appear on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine.
Each magazine is aimed at a different age group, but they both share similar "articles" and topics that are discussed in the magazine. Both address body image and ways to "improve" the way you look. 'Girl Life' has articles titled "6 moves to a Hot Bod", "Get a Better Body Now", "New Year, New Body", all suggesting that young girls should change the way they look to emulate these teen celebrities they look up to. Cosmopolitan, while still offering tips to enhance women's appearances, now includes sexy tips. "Your Orgasm Guaranteed", "Sex He Craves", and "Your Best Sex Ever" are shown next to these young celebrities that girls look up to.
Both magazines show how women in modern society have become self-disciplining subjects through weight control and ornamenting the body.
