Online fashion magazine

When Internet retailing took off in the mid- '90s, the Spanish-speaking community was far from top of mind. In fact, many Spanish-speaking sites--especially those based in the United States--have struggled to play catch up over the last few years within a predominantly English-speaking U.S. Internet market.

However, as the industry has evolved over the last couple of years at harrowing speeds, so too has the online Spanish community. One of the leaders in this realm is Mujer; Mujer (Woman, Woman), an on-line magazine that is establishing itself as a pioneer in H&BC with its new interactive beauty solutions network.

The interactive network allows Latino women across North America to retrieve beauty tips from fashion experts and models--such as which cosmetic supplies work specifically for them. What's more, site visitors can partake in the virtual swap of beauty supplies like lipstick and eyeliner, and fit virtual dolls with different fashion concepts. A chat option also helps surfers share fashion and beauty tips, and Latina super model Valerie Mazza offers tips for the modem Latina woman on the latest trends with her own fashion and beauty column.
