The mandate for PureBeautyMag is almost as lofty as the one for Startrek. However, the unadulterated and natural beauty of the female is not something new, it is simply something site management believes needs a renaissance. A return to somewhere man has gone long before, and without the cosmetic and photo-editing techniques that too often now obscure the essential truth of the feminine. This encapsulates their belief and their mission.

The site makes great restorative claims for the efficacy of its site to ease the worldly stress of the deserving male heart, mind and body. Why not, if human emotions can impact on the functioning of machines - as scientists have proven - then drinking in the visual beauty of the naked form may sustain the human psyche in an inexplicable way. Besides, everyone knows atoms of separate individuals merge in a bout of quality sex, why shouldn't weird stuff happen on an intangible level as well.

So how do they raise porn to such heights? It begins with a site design to confuse those out of step with that fast-paced world that real beauty lovers seem to inhabit. The front page includes stuff every man of quality needs - world news and foreign currency exchange rates. Thank god for this as it means you can lose yourself in the content of this site and still keep track of when you might need to shift some stock or grab another Forex contract. Never let your pleasures undermine the money that supports your lifestyle.

You will find your doses of beauty in a photo gallery of delicious proportions. With close to 1,000 picture sets and between 40 to 120 images per set, you can pick and sort through somewhere in the vicinity of 50,000 pictures or more. Of necessity and in accordance with the mandate, these are excellent high-res photos, and are downloadable in Zip files.

Although the site is primarily a photographic site there are about 50 movies. These are mostly Behind the Scenes at the photo shoots. They are short clips, again of excellent quality and make a small but valuable addition to the main game.

In keeping with the raised standard of the site, its mandate and technical and content quality, the site includes some companion extras. There are some amateur shots - perhaps for a change of pace, lots of articles and some information pieces on photographic history and art.

If you only want a means through which you can masturbate, may I suggest you go elsewhere. If you value photography, erotica, the good of your higher self and having a ton of product to swim around in, then get your ass signed up and bask in the restorative impact on your hormones and blood pressure. Be warned, however, that they are no longer updating.
