ABC results for the six month period ending December 2002 reveal a turbulent time for the teen magazine sector, with established titles suffering in the wake of new launches, such as Emap’s Sneak (see Emap Teen Titles To Aid Sneak Launch) and BBC’s It’s Hot.

Following a gradual decline over the last few years, the monthly beauty, fashion and entertainment title saw its circulation fall by 16.6% year on year during the second half of 2002 to 321,258, down from 385,165 in the same period in 2001.
