I like the second cover for nostalgia i think...but her face looks puffy or it's a bad makeup work or airbrushed. The editorial looks much better (hope is longer) even if it resembles a little of her Self Service editorial (in a lower level of course) but overall is good.
Spanish magazines always get good models in general, of course they have their classics like Arizona, Maryna, Carmen,Toni and Constance, i think it have to be a deal with agencies.
Now that Vogue is without a known EIC, HB should try to consolidate. But i think Elle still is the most readed there.
