Planning - Colour Scheme

For my first magazine cover and contents page, I decided to go with a pink theme, inspired by my research of Paper Magazine. I wanted there to be bright pops of colour, such as yellow and white, amongst different shades of pink. This would connote femininity, and also play into my theme of sweets and sugar; which are often associated with girls.

For my second magazine cover and contents page, I wanted a more neutral colour scheme. I decided to use pale colours, such as icy blue and pale skin. This would make the pops of colour in the lipstick and makeup stand out, as these are the main focuses of the images. This colour scheme is quite neutral; which links to my focus on gender neutrality in the media.
