She is way more beautiful than this, the mouth open like that is strange, but i guess they were going for the Sophia Loren vibe. She is perfect for Allure though!
I've been waiting for a decent cover with Sofia and at least she looks like how she really is, instead of being photoshopped to hell and back.
Sofia looks sexy as hell, in an organic way and nice colouring throughout the cover too.....but totally ruined by way too much text.

The photo itself is beautiful. Sofia usually looks stunning, but this really is one of the loveliest photos I've ever seen of her. Sadly, the text is a total mess. I know what's really important is the content, less so the cover image, and even less important is the cover text. But c'mon. That's what jumps at you first and why give off a bad first impression? For one thing, the color of the title seems too strong for the photograph behind it. More importantly, though, the everything else is bland white in a basic font, too big, too widely spaces, banal headlines (and sublines... is that what they're called?)
It just annoys me when a magazine has to mar a great image with terrible text. "I WAS J.LO'S MAKEUP ARTIST". Oh really? Tell me more about that..
