Natmags axes CosmoGirl!

The National Magazine Company is axing teen girl title CosmoGirl! after six years. The closure of the monthly title and the CosmoGirl! website follows a review of the publisher’s portfolio.

The last issue will be published in August and Natmags says it will look to redeploy the title’s 12 editorial staff.

Natmags tried to enhance the appeal of CosmoGirl! earlier this year when it relaunched cosmogirl.co.uk. Natmags will continue to target the young women’s market by extending the test period for its online entertainment magazine Jellyfish to September although it is now focusing on the 18-25 age group.
