Face Off (2011) s04e04 Episode Script
Eye Candy
Previously on Face Off The artists went to hell and back.
Anthony won his fourth challenge in a row Thank you, guys.
And Katie was sent home.
Now, 11 artists remain, and tonight, they'll tackle the sweetest challenge yet.
Oh, my God, there's candy everywhere.
- This is awesome.
- Wow.
But some will * on their confectionery creations.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
My actor is stuck to the floor.
What the hell was I thinking? I can't let this crap send me home.
Fuck.
Your makeup didn't work out.
This is such a great concept.
I am so proud.
There was absolutely no candy anywhere in this makeup.
In the end, only one will win the opportunity to be a guest lecturer at Make Up For Ever's academies in New York and Paris, the all-new 2013 Fiat 500, and $100,000.
Who will be the next great name in movie magic? Welcome to Face Off! I feel sad.
I miss Katie.
Yeah, me too.
I'm sure she's upset because she had to work with somebody who could not perform to their full potential.
It's difficult to have Katie gone because I feel directly responsible.
All I can do is just try to put it out of my mind.
- Let's rest that wrist up.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
It did 'cause I seriously thought we were top looks going in.
I'm starting to think maybe the judges expect more of me.
Well, I was surprised that me and Eric were where we were.
We thought that we would be safe, but to be in the top looks was very exciting, but I don't think I deserve to be there.
So I'm gonna try to do better, and I'm really excited to see what's gonna happen next.
So I walk into The Federal bar, it's an old 1920s building, and I'm thinking that we're probably gonna do 1920s makeup.
Welcome to The Federal bar.
Built in 1926, it was the site of the first ever Los Angeles beard and moustache competition, which is the inspiration for today's foundation challenge.
Now, here to tell you more about these outrageous competitions is the founder and president of the Los Angeles Beard and Moustache Club and National Beard champion.
Please welcome John Myatt.
Howdy, y'all.
I've only laid about two or three beards in my whole life, so I am a little worried.
Can you tell our contestants just a little bit more about this quickly growing sport? The best way to describe a beard and moustache competition is a mix between a male beauty pageant and a dog show.
Your challenge today will have you hand-laying your own outrageous facial hair.
Let's bring out your models.
Of course! They're not men.
Your foundation challenge is to take these beautiful models and transform them into a bearded lady from the circus.
Oh, that's awesome.
The winner of today's foundation challenge will receive immunity and cannot be eliminated from this week's spotlight challenge.
We have provided you with all kinds of hair as well as racks of circus-themed wardrobe to finish off your looks.
John, any last-minute tips for these guys? One big thing I notice in fake facial hair is it doesn't really match the face or jawline, so I'd keep a lookout for that.
Your models have been randomly assigned, and you have two hours to complete your looks.
Get ready because your time starts now.
There's this huge wall with all these different hairs.
I'm really excited to see what we can come up with.
I find this beautiful saloon girl's dress.
In my mind, I start making my model into a bearded lady, leprechaun burlesque dancer.
I need immunity this week.
I need a little bit more time to figure out how to use my hand 'cause I don't want to go home.
When you're laying hair, it's all in application.
You can't hide the edges, so I want to go completely natural.
I don't do facial hair.
I personally can't even manage my own hair.
I'm just gonna put some glue on their face and start sticking hair into it.
If you're a bearded lady, you're gonna do some wacky stuff, so, yeah, you go and bleach your beard and dye it a little pink.
You don't need much to lay a beard.
You just really need a hackle to separate the hairs.
A hackle is a dangerous tool to use.
It's like a really sharp comb.
I'm hitting my knuckle, like, four or five times on there, and you tend to bleed a little bit.
Ten minutes, everybody.
I'm noticing that everyone is going crazy over the top.
They're picking different colors.
Some of them are using braids, and I'm a little concerned with how conservative I've approached it.
Time's up, everybody.
Brushes down.
- Hi, Alex.
- Hi, McKenzie.
How are you? So explain your concept to us.
It's like a modern circus.
I like the pink faded into it, and the curls are very nice, but ? - Yeah.
- So I would've tried to clean up the loops a little more.
A little symmetrical, but it's good.
I went with an Irish burlesque carnival feel.
I love this.
Yeah, it matches the wig very well.
- Laid a bit weird on the cheek.
- Yeah.
It's a little high, but for the most part, no, the curls are nice.
My bearded lady is a little more masculine.
You know, it's well laid.
Like, the cheek line follows the face where facial hair will really grow.
Thank you.
A hard part about believable moustaches is the thickness right under the nose.
So I think if you maybe had thickened up here a little bit, it would have been a little more believable.
All right, John, how do you think they did overall today? - Overall, pretty good.
- All right.
Well, who were some of your favorite looks today then? Eric Z.
The color, the blending of the hair that matched.
It was very nice, and it was just laid very well, looked very natural.
My second one, Alex.
I like the white and just the light slight accent of the color, and I know curls are a very hard thing to do, really nice.
Okay, John, who is the winner of today's challenge? The winner of today's challenge is Eric Z.
- Great job! - Yay! - It looked realistic.
- It really did.
It looked like a bearded lady.
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
You have won immunity in the next challenge - and cannot be eliminated.
- Awesome.
All right, well, this was a lot of fun, so I will see you all for your next spotlight challenge.
- Bye.
- Thank you.
- Nice meeting you.
- Bye.
Uh-oh.
Oh, my God! There's candy everywhere in the lab.
I feel like jumping in there and just swimming around it.
So what do you think of the place? - Wow! - It's candy land.
- That's beautiful.
- Looks yummy.
In films like Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, characters who overindulge eventually fuse with their favorite treats.
That is the inspiration for this week's spotlight challenge-- to create an original candy creature or character.
It's gonna be really fun.
It's gonna need a lot of creativity, and that's what I like.
To make your looks even sweeter, you must incorporate some of the candies and treats into your makeups.
I've done candy-themed model shoots.
It's portfolio work.
It's not where my heart is.
All right, guys, go pick your models and get started.
As soon as we pick our models, we all grab a bag, go get our candy, and just fill it up.
It was like trick-or-treating.
The first candies that catch my eye are the candy corn.
I got to eat one of those.
Mm.
So I want to incorporate the candy corn and licorice as the main candies.
My concept is kind of like "night of the living candy.
" Kids eat all the candy on Halloween, and now, it's the candy's turn to eat the children.
First thing I think of is the lollipops and swirls and incorporating them into some kind of a colonial wig, and thus, colonel candy was born.
What are you doing? I think I want to do, like, a witch, like, a candy-witch-type thing.
I'm gonna play with the idea that Hansel and Gretel witch will lure children in with candy and entice them, and then, you know, use it to destroy them.
I think I'm gonna make all the costumes out of the candy.
I'm gonna make really, really big eyes and give her, like, pointy, perfect nose, something cartoon-ish.
I'm gonna take a really gross approach to this.
My design is going to be the Incredible Melting Gummy Glutton.
Big, obese, couch-potato-type look dissolving into a big gummy mess.
Wah.
That's bad.
I named my character Sweet Tooth Susie.
Her sweet tooth is this belly that's just gnashing teeth.
- I love your stomach idea.
- Yeah.
Just insanity.
I have three pieces that need to be sculpted, molded, and run foam latex into it.
The only candy I could see to make a character out of is a gummy bear, so my concept is the gummy bear that's half eaten and undead.
But it's harder than I expected, turning this into a bear face.
I'm not feeling good about this challenge.
I'm getting a little frustrated 'cause it's taking way too much time, and I can't let this crappy gummy bear send me home.
It looks like shit.
Coming up I cannot get the mold apart.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
There's an appalling lack of makeup.
This is a great concept.
I'm *, getting his head to look like a freaking bear head, man.
- It's just-- - Yeah, bears are tough.
I'm not feeling good about the candy challenge at all.
It looks like shit.
I am tired of looking at it.
I'm tired of thinking about it, and it's killing me.
I just want to do whatever I can do to be safe.
What's that, like, a ballerina? Sugar Plum Fairy.
I grew up on dance.
I love the ballet, and I'm gonna go that route because I'm very strong at beauty and pretty things.
What are you gonna do with the candy? So I'm thinking about putting, like, horns in here, trying to incorporate some of these, like, crystal things.
My concept is it's a sugar rock candy troll, so he's gonna have sugar rock candies coming through his chest and through his face.
- Looks radical.
- Thanks.
- Jenna, how are you feeling? - My hand is totally numb.
I'm just not even thinking about it.
I'm sorry.
I'm not gonna let it get the best of me this time again.
Hey, guys! I'm back with my dad to do the walkthrough.
Having a little difficult time getting him to look like a bear - out of a human face.
- You know what you need to do? Your nostrils are more like a cat.
A bear actually has a hook in his nostril as it come-- Yeah, I was trying to get it-- The hook comes around this way 'cause a bear's head comes right straight down into that nose.
- I see, I see.
- Mm-hmm.
I gotcha.
Yeah, I've been waiting for you all day.
I was hoping you'd come today.
So basically, it's a little pageant girl that ate too much candy and she became the rock candy, and she's a little crazy.
I wasn't sure if I should add more candies to it.
I mean, that's what the challenge is.
Yeah.
So I would take advantage of the candy.
Otherwise you're gonna wind up just a face with a couple of little things here and there.
Now, how are you doing time-wise? I think, so far, so good.
I want to get these molded today, so-- - Everything? - Yeah.
- That's aggressive.
- Yeah.
You know, you're at a point now where it's-- everything is rough, so you need to leave yourself enough time to Certainly.
- smooth it out.
- Yeah.
Tell us what you have going here.
Okay.
She's a sinister tooth fairy.
She gives candy to the kids to rot their teeth.
Try to think of something else to do with the nose.
Either give yourself a little bit more of a bump here - A bump.
- or extend it down.
'Cause this from a distance is almost going to read like a regular nose.
- Regular nose, right, okay.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
I like your sculpture.
It has a nice flow to it.
What are you planning on doing with the mouth? All I'm gonna do is-- this arm's actually gonna be sculpted in with a chess piece.
Right.
So the actor's real arm could be underneath to operate the tongue moving around, so it's not just a big, rubber head.
All right, everybody, good luck tomorrow.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
After hearing from Mr.
Westmore, I don't feel so nervous.
And I know it still looks like a kitty cat, but I have to keep going.
I can't waste all this time sculpting just the face.
So I finished with my sculpting, and I'm ready to mold my facial prosthetic.
I chose silicone because I want to color the silicone, so I don't have to think about airbrushing it on a vacation day.
This is my second time pouring silicone.
Every day here, I'm learning, and I feel that I'm getting better.
I think I'm gonna be silicone master.
I finished the face mold, and now, I want to incorporate licorice into the chest, and I pressed the candy into the clay, so that way, I know where it goes when the foam latex is complete.
It's kind of like a map.
End of day one, I'm sitting pretty good.
I've molded my face sculpture, I've molded my head sculpture.
But I'm looking around, and everyone's hustling, bustling, trying to finish their pieces.
And I'm kind of in a relaxed mode, man.
- Nice, man.
- Have a good day.
That's time.
Tools down.
Good job, buddy.
- Coming in.
- All right.
You're getting really nice edges.
Thanks.
Day two.
It's another ten-hour day.
I still have quite a bit to do, but I'm gonna get busy.
I'm sculpting the arms and blocking out the feet and getting ready for texture.
Overnight, I thought of adding another element to my character, which is going to be this gingerbread house that's morphing out of her back.
It's something that the hag would use to lure children into their homes.
My plan for the day is to get this headpiece finished and ready for foam.
And because this wig piece is one of the main elements of this makeup, I'm spending quite a bit of time on it.
Are you gonna put licorice in that or-- No, I'm-- I think I'm gonna color it like cotton candy.
I have to finish all my sculpting for all my pieces that are gonna go all over her body.
I think I'm gonna go with silicone just for it being a little bit more flexible and moving more natural with the face.
But it's definitely a risk because I don't have much experience at all applying it.
I already have the face, and I'm working on the costumes.
I'm making a top out of the burlap, so I can put the candies on it.
- This looks awesome.
- Thank you.
I'm actually having quite a bit of difficulty with my grip strength in my hand.
What the hell? I'm really frustrated because I cannot get the mold apart.
Why aren't you coming out? And then my mannequin rips off.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
I don't-- I don't know what I'm gonna do.
Why aren't you coming out? It's the second day of our candy challenge, and this issue with my hands is really compounding things.
I went to pry it off, and the whole core broke.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point because you have to have a core for that foam to form around.
But I'm not a quitter.
I don't like to give up.
So I start looking around trying to find the exact same mannequin that I can actually use as a core because I have to try to get it run in foam today.
It's gonna work, but prying the previous mannequin out of this mold wasted lots of valuable time, but I'm trying not to think about it at all, trying to power through it.
I'm able to get my foam latex face and head molded, and I start pre-painting.
So I'm a little bit ahead of the game.
I need to pre-paint them because I'm adding candy into the head.
Finally finished molding my wig piece and the rest of day two, I'm basically trying to get all the elements I need for the costume.
Start building the applets by taking the lollipops and gluing licorice all the way around it.
We have a little less than an hour left, but I only have one half of my body molded.
This fat suit turns out to be a 250-pound mold, and I have a lot of work ahead of me to get this completed.
All right! Hoo-ha! It's the end of day two, and I'm actually pretty happy with my character.
Everybody, time's up.
I've already glued all the candy in the face.
I already have it pre-painted, so I think I'm ready for tomorrow.
It's application day.
We got four hours in the shop, one hour at last looks at the stage, so I'm gonna have to hustle.
Going into an application day with immunity is a completely different feeling.
If there is ever a time where I'm gonna take my time on something that I want to see done correctly, it's gonna be the application.
Oh, boy.
Hello! - How's it going, man? - Good.
Thanks.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
Can you try this on? You're gonna be Colonel Candy.
This leg's gonna be out, and this leg will be tucked in.
First, I glue on her belly appliance, which works fabulously.
All right, let's try this on, see what you think.
I glue on her face appliance.
This thing is literally coming to life, and it's grotesque.
I love it.
I'm just starting to glue down my silicone piece to my model.
This is not sticking right, and it just keeps on lifting up.
I'm a little bit nervous since I worked with a material that I don't normally work with.
I just have no time to lose today.
How does that feel? I have to paint my model green, and the head still looks a little catlike to me, but it looks a little better than I thought it would look.
All right, buddy.
This-- oh, it does come up really nice and hot.
Oh, thank God.
I'm melting bag after bag of gummy products to start coating my model with.
Alex, look at the blob.
I know! Isn't that crazy? I'm starting to get nervous.
I'm going really subtle, and that might be the wrong thing to do, so I'm really worried about what the judges are gonna think.
I start painting, and I'm having some issues controlling my airbrush.
I'm pushing the trigger harder than I think I should, but with my fingers being numb, I can't tell until it comes out.
And then I realize, oh, no, it's too much.
This is not my favorite challenge.
There's a lot of bright, vivid colors in candy, which-- I don't use a lot of those in my makeups.
So I really don't know what my color palette's gonna be at this point.
I'm just trying to make the best of it and get the pieces done, get the candy in there, and then see what happens.
Close.
Turn your head slightly that way.
I really want it to read as a lollipop.
I think incorporating glitter and also sprinkles, it might give it a fun, playful look.
You're gonna be smelling like gummies.
I'm making the biggest mess of melted gummy bears and dumping gelatins on my blob.
It's so fun.
Eric's makeup is just a pile of mess.
It's disgusting.
It's just gross.
What's the time? Seven minutes.
Ahhh.
At this point, I can't even look at what other people are doing around the lab because I am definitely in trouble here with this makeup.
So I'm just concentrating on what's on my plate.
Time.
I am absolutely terrified.
I should have gone with more wacky instead of such a subtle look.
But I can't really throw in the towel because I don't want to go home.
Coming up My actor is stuck to the floor.
There was absolutely no candy in this makeup.
It's just so wrought with technical issues.
This is one of the best depictions of gluttony I've ever seen.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
We have an hour for last looks, and I've got to get the mouth glued down, and I've got to start incorporating the rock candy.
I know I need to incorporate more of the rock candy coming out of her skin, but I'm really nervous because I don't know if I'm gonna make it prominent enough.
With all the melted down gummy bears, my actor is literally stuck to the floor, and I only got ten minutes to get this solved.
Brushes down, guys.
That's time.
I'm really embarrassed to have this go out onstage.
I'm not feeling very good at this point at all.
Welcome to the Face Off reveal stage.
Tonight, one of you will be eliminated.
First, say hello to your judges-- owner of Optic Nerve Makeup Effects Studio, Glenn Hetrick.
- Good evening.
- Hey, Glenn.
Three-time Oscar-winning makeup artist, Ve Neill.
Hello, you sa-weet things, you.
Creature and concept designer, Neville Page.
Hello, everyone.
- Hello.
- Hi.
And joining our panel this week, he's an incredibly talented artist whose work often features a confectionery utopia and has been showcased in galleries all over the world.
He's also been a frequent Katy Perry collaborator and was the artistic director for her sweets-themed California Gurls video.
Please welcome Will Cotton.
Thank you so much for being here.
Thank you.
I'm so excited to be here, and I can't wait to see what you guys do.
Will Cotton is art director for Katy Perry.
My creature looks like Katy Perry, and they got Will Cotton? He's awesome.
So this week, your spotlight challenge was to create a candy character or creature incorporating actual treats into your makeups.
So let's see what you've come up with.
It's grotesque and yet hilarious at the same time.
Everyone's cracking up watching this belly come to life so I'm feeling pretty positive about it.
I'm hating the stupid wig.
What the hell was I thinking? I hate it.
She looks grey.
All the colors just turned muddy.
I wish I had just a little more time to incorporate more candy, and I wish I would have pushed myself a little harder to be more creative with the candy elements in my character.
I wish I had made different creative choices.
Everyone has so much candy on theirs, and I'm definitely the person with the least amount of candy.
I feel pretty confident in my makeup, and hopefully, I'll be in the top.
Reba's a lollipop character, and I think she looks cute.
It's a little more playful than the other designs, but I like that.
It looks like he walked out of some cartoon and into the real world.
I feel good about this makeup 'cause he looks creepy.
He's missing hands, so that's the only thing I'm worried about.
My character looks pretty.
She looks like she just popped up from, like, candy world.
This creature is everything I hoped it would be and more.
I am feeling so proud of this creation.
Judges, why don't you take a closer look? It's just amazing.
- Oh, my God.
- Do you belly dance? I like the fact that he used-- all these are different colors.
I didn't even realize it till we got up close.
- Wow.
- It's a bit of a mess.
Now, this is a curiosity.
The top of my fairy's head is starting to collapse.
The whole thing looks like a mask to me.
I don't have a good paint job.
I don't have enough candy incorporated into my makeup.
I'm going home.
The whole thing looks like a mask to me.
The top of my fairy's head is starting to collapse.
And the wrinkles have no weight, - they're just gouges again.
- Yeah.
Look at this beautiful little diorama happening back here.
That in itself is a really powerful image.
This edge is absolutely aberrant.
- It's off.
- Yeah.
I can put my finger underneath it.
It looks like he embedded this candy in cookie dough.
That's, like, out of the park.
- Is it silicone? - Looks like it.
I love its translucency.
Wow.
Careful.
Might bite you.
He tried a lot of things here.
I mean, I'll definitely give him that.
There's some beautiful work on the back.
All right.
Will, how do you think they did tonight? It's so much more demonic than I would have ever anticipated.
But really incredible work.
Okay, the judges have scored your creations.
Let's find out what they thought.
Eric Z, Meagan, Anthony, Wayne, Eric F, you are all safe and can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
The rest of you were the best and the worst.
The judges will now speak with each of you to learn more about your work.
Alam, please step forward.
Tell us about your creation.
She's the Princess of the Candy World, and I got inspired from Asian animation.
The lifeless approach to the face gives it a toy quality that I think merges very nicely with the aesthetic of this challenge.
Alam, I think you did a great job of integrating the candy.
- It's very sweet.
- Thank you.
The costuming piece is really smart how you built these different layers and components out of the candy.
She's a cohesive package.
I like this.
Alam, I love the reference to anime.
I think it's a great piece.
- Thank you.
- Alam, thank you very much.
Jenna.
Okay, Jenna, would you tell us a little bit about your character? She tries to get the children to eat candy so that their teeth will rot so that she can have them.
I understand that you have that rock candy crown, but there was absolutely no candy anywhere in this makeup.
It doesn't really feel like you've accomplished the challenge for me.
Your sculpting just looks like big gouges and cuts.
It really makes me think of the Hansel and Gretel witch because she uses this attractive item to bring the children in this gingerbread house, and that's the part that's missing from this character.
She's missing that effective lure.
Jenna, thank you.
Alex, you're up.
Tell us about the concept.
This is a character that ate too much candy at the pageant and then became the candy.
So it was coming out of the skin, and she became evil, and she goes after and kills the other kids 'cause she wants their candy.
In regard * make up application.
You've got some troubles going on there.
There's an appalling lack of makeup for the amount of time that you have.
I just don't know what you did.
It's not even glued down.
How did that happen? She wasn't in it that long.
Well, this is the first time I actually applied a silicone appliance.
But you have to seal the edges on silicone.
You can't just, like, stick it down and hope for the best.
Alex, thank you.
Please step back.
Kris, you're next.
Hi, Kris.
Well, first off, let me hear about your concept.
I came up with a character that is night of Halloween where the candy comes alive, and so the kids eating the candy-- - he would eat the kids.
- I love that.
To me, it feels anatomically believable.
There is something about the way the candy corns grow out of the face.
- I love it.
- Thank you.
Most of all, I love his candy corn fingernails And his lovely candy corn teeth Which are very disturbing.
- Thank you.
- This is a lot of work.
Head-to-toe has been addressed, and I love the concept of using the licorice on the chest as pectoral muscle definition.
It's a great piece.
Thank you very much.
- Kris, please step back.
- Thanks a lot.
House.
Please tell me the concept behind your candy character.
The belly was the first thing that came to me.
A large stomach that she kept feeding with candy, and it had a voracious appetite of its own.
Did you know that she is a belly dancer? - No, I did not.
- Can you do that some more? - That's awesome.
- Oh, my God.
This conceptually is a really great piece.
The mouth is a show-stopper.
The gullet's a great shape, but the worst part of this is body paint that abruptly stops.
But this one is such a great concept.
I just love it for that.
House, this is one of the best depictions of gluttony I've ever seen.
- It blows me away.
- Thank you.
House, thank you very much.
Please step back.
Thank you.
Autumn, please step forward.
Yow.
Autumn, explain to us your concept.
He's a gummy bear, and he's the one everybody picks out, so he's going sour.
Most of the things that you tried to do didn't work out for you.
You're in trouble when my favorite part of your makeup is the wardrobe.
I think your idea of the little hands with the gumdrops is very cute, and you matched his feet.
That's all great.
He does, however, look more like a cat than a bear.
There's no transition whatsoever between piece of rubber and skin.
It's just so wrought with so many technical issues.
Autumn, please step back.
Okay, the judges have heard what you have to say.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room while they make their decisions.
All right, guys, why don't we start with some of the looks you like the most? Alam.
I absolutely adore the combination of the candy with the lifeless doll face that she put on the thing.
This was the only character here for me tonight that I would actually want to put in a painting.
Let's move on to Kris.
He works from far away as just a demon Yeah.
And then when you get close up, it has all the notes of the candy, which is a challenge.
I think it's probably the most well done makeup.
- Yeah.
- Let's move on to House.
The concept is so bold, and that's what I personally love in a character design.
I felt like I was seeing a new character that I'll probably never forget.
Let's move on to the bottom looks.
Let's start with Alex.
We can go on all day about the technical problems because there's no shortage of them, but it starts with the idea.
Yeah, I understood the notion of eating so much candy, and it's starting to work its way out, but why did it have to be themed in a pageant? Okay, let's move on to Jenna.
She's making a lot of mistakes sort of week after week.
It's almost something that had a cool idea behind it that could have been awesome, but it's not getting there.
I feel bad for her that her hands are messed up, but she still doesn't have the ability to make smart decisions, and that doesn't have anything to do with her hands.
Let's move on to Autumn.
- A gummy bear gone bad.
- Mm-hmm.
I'm sorry, but a gummy bear head - is not a very tough sculpture.
- Yeah.
And if you're struggling with that, what else have you got? All right, judges, have you made your decisions? Yes, we have.
Okay, let's bring them back out.
Glenn, tell us about the top looks.
Alam, you had a really cool, artificial, toy-like nature to your makeup, and you did a really good job bringing the candy into that design.
Kris, really interesting design choices, and you also made a lot of great decisions in the way that you integrated the candy into your makeup.
House.
Extremely strong concept, and we really appreciate what you did with your character's profile.
Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? Tonight's winner is-- - Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? Tonight's winner is Kris.
Thank you.
Appreciate it.
Your use of candy, the different textures, the sculpture-- everything worked well for you tonight.
Fantastic.
Thank you so much.
Well done.
I am in complete shock.
Finally, I stopped Anthony's winning streak.
It's truly a good feeling.
Kris, congratulations.
You can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
Alam and House, you are also safe this week and can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
Unfortunately, that means the rest of you were on the bottom this week, and one of you will be eliminated.
Please step forward.
Glenn, tell us about the bottom looks.
Alex, we had a really hard time understanding exactly what it was that you spent all of your time on this week.
Jenna, candy really didn't integrate into your makeup at all.
Autumn, your second-guessing was very evident in your final makeup.
So who is going home tonight? The person going home tonight is Alex.
If you're going to only show us one piece, it needs to be perfect, and this wasn't.
I absolutely agree.
Alex, I'm sorry, but you have been eliminated.
That means the rest of you are safe this week and can head back to the makeup room.
You have talent.
It's obvious, so I wish you luck.
I appreciate the chance I got to actually show you a little bit of my craft.
It's been really great having you here with us.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room and pack up your kit.
- Thank you.
- Good luck.
This has been a wild ride, and I definitely think I made friends till the end.
Third time's the charm.
- What? - What? I knew this was gonna be tough competition coming out here, but I am so not ready to go home.
Even though I am not proud of the note that I'm leaving, you haven't seen everything from me yet.
I'll definitely be around.
Anthony won his fourth challenge in a row Thank you, guys.
And Katie was sent home.
Now, 11 artists remain, and tonight, they'll tackle the sweetest challenge yet.
Oh, my God, there's candy everywhere.
- This is awesome.
- Wow.
But some will * on their confectionery creations.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
My actor is stuck to the floor.
What the hell was I thinking? I can't let this crap send me home.
Fuck.
Your makeup didn't work out.
This is such a great concept.
I am so proud.
There was absolutely no candy anywhere in this makeup.
In the end, only one will win the opportunity to be a guest lecturer at Make Up For Ever's academies in New York and Paris, the all-new 2013 Fiat 500, and $100,000.
Who will be the next great name in movie magic? Welcome to Face Off! I feel sad.
I miss Katie.
Yeah, me too.
I'm sure she's upset because she had to work with somebody who could not perform to their full potential.
It's difficult to have Katie gone because I feel directly responsible.
All I can do is just try to put it out of my mind.
- Let's rest that wrist up.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
It did 'cause I seriously thought we were top looks going in.
I'm starting to think maybe the judges expect more of me.
Well, I was surprised that me and Eric were where we were.
We thought that we would be safe, but to be in the top looks was very exciting, but I don't think I deserve to be there.
So I'm gonna try to do better, and I'm really excited to see what's gonna happen next.
So I walk into The Federal bar, it's an old 1920s building, and I'm thinking that we're probably gonna do 1920s makeup.
Welcome to The Federal bar.
Built in 1926, it was the site of the first ever Los Angeles beard and moustache competition, which is the inspiration for today's foundation challenge.
Now, here to tell you more about these outrageous competitions is the founder and president of the Los Angeles Beard and Moustache Club and National Beard champion.
Please welcome John Myatt.
Howdy, y'all.
I've only laid about two or three beards in my whole life, so I am a little worried.
Can you tell our contestants just a little bit more about this quickly growing sport? The best way to describe a beard and moustache competition is a mix between a male beauty pageant and a dog show.
Your challenge today will have you hand-laying your own outrageous facial hair.
Let's bring out your models.
Of course! They're not men.
Your foundation challenge is to take these beautiful models and transform them into a bearded lady from the circus.
Oh, that's awesome.
The winner of today's foundation challenge will receive immunity and cannot be eliminated from this week's spotlight challenge.
We have provided you with all kinds of hair as well as racks of circus-themed wardrobe to finish off your looks.
John, any last-minute tips for these guys? One big thing I notice in fake facial hair is it doesn't really match the face or jawline, so I'd keep a lookout for that.
Your models have been randomly assigned, and you have two hours to complete your looks.
Get ready because your time starts now.
There's this huge wall with all these different hairs.
I'm really excited to see what we can come up with.
I find this beautiful saloon girl's dress.
In my mind, I start making my model into a bearded lady, leprechaun burlesque dancer.
I need immunity this week.
I need a little bit more time to figure out how to use my hand 'cause I don't want to go home.
When you're laying hair, it's all in application.
You can't hide the edges, so I want to go completely natural.
I don't do facial hair.
I personally can't even manage my own hair.
I'm just gonna put some glue on their face and start sticking hair into it.
If you're a bearded lady, you're gonna do some wacky stuff, so, yeah, you go and bleach your beard and dye it a little pink.
You don't need much to lay a beard.
You just really need a hackle to separate the hairs.
A hackle is a dangerous tool to use.
It's like a really sharp comb.
I'm hitting my knuckle, like, four or five times on there, and you tend to bleed a little bit.
Ten minutes, everybody.
I'm noticing that everyone is going crazy over the top.
They're picking different colors.
Some of them are using braids, and I'm a little concerned with how conservative I've approached it.
Time's up, everybody.
Brushes down.
- Hi, Alex.
- Hi, McKenzie.
How are you? So explain your concept to us.
It's like a modern circus.
I like the pink faded into it, and the curls are very nice, but ? - Yeah.
- So I would've tried to clean up the loops a little more.
A little symmetrical, but it's good.
I went with an Irish burlesque carnival feel.
I love this.
Yeah, it matches the wig very well.
- Laid a bit weird on the cheek.
- Yeah.
It's a little high, but for the most part, no, the curls are nice.
My bearded lady is a little more masculine.
You know, it's well laid.
Like, the cheek line follows the face where facial hair will really grow.
Thank you.
A hard part about believable moustaches is the thickness right under the nose.
So I think if you maybe had thickened up here a little bit, it would have been a little more believable.
All right, John, how do you think they did overall today? - Overall, pretty good.
- All right.
Well, who were some of your favorite looks today then? Eric Z.
The color, the blending of the hair that matched.
It was very nice, and it was just laid very well, looked very natural.
My second one, Alex.
I like the white and just the light slight accent of the color, and I know curls are a very hard thing to do, really nice.
Okay, John, who is the winner of today's challenge? The winner of today's challenge is Eric Z.
- Great job! - Yay! - It looked realistic.
- It really did.
It looked like a bearded lady.
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
You have won immunity in the next challenge - and cannot be eliminated.
- Awesome.
All right, well, this was a lot of fun, so I will see you all for your next spotlight challenge.
- Bye.
- Thank you.
- Nice meeting you.
- Bye.
Uh-oh.
Oh, my God! There's candy everywhere in the lab.
I feel like jumping in there and just swimming around it.
So what do you think of the place? - Wow! - It's candy land.
- That's beautiful.
- Looks yummy.
In films like Charlie And The Chocolate Factory, characters who overindulge eventually fuse with their favorite treats.
That is the inspiration for this week's spotlight challenge-- to create an original candy creature or character.
It's gonna be really fun.
It's gonna need a lot of creativity, and that's what I like.
To make your looks even sweeter, you must incorporate some of the candies and treats into your makeups.
I've done candy-themed model shoots.
It's portfolio work.
It's not where my heart is.
All right, guys, go pick your models and get started.
As soon as we pick our models, we all grab a bag, go get our candy, and just fill it up.
It was like trick-or-treating.
The first candies that catch my eye are the candy corn.
I got to eat one of those.
Mm.
So I want to incorporate the candy corn and licorice as the main candies.
My concept is kind of like "night of the living candy.
" Kids eat all the candy on Halloween, and now, it's the candy's turn to eat the children.
First thing I think of is the lollipops and swirls and incorporating them into some kind of a colonial wig, and thus, colonel candy was born.
What are you doing? I think I want to do, like, a witch, like, a candy-witch-type thing.
I'm gonna play with the idea that Hansel and Gretel witch will lure children in with candy and entice them, and then, you know, use it to destroy them.
I think I'm gonna make all the costumes out of the candy.
I'm gonna make really, really big eyes and give her, like, pointy, perfect nose, something cartoon-ish.
I'm gonna take a really gross approach to this.
My design is going to be the Incredible Melting Gummy Glutton.
Big, obese, couch-potato-type look dissolving into a big gummy mess.
Wah.
That's bad.
I named my character Sweet Tooth Susie.
Her sweet tooth is this belly that's just gnashing teeth.
- I love your stomach idea.
- Yeah.
Just insanity.
I have three pieces that need to be sculpted, molded, and run foam latex into it.
The only candy I could see to make a character out of is a gummy bear, so my concept is the gummy bear that's half eaten and undead.
But it's harder than I expected, turning this into a bear face.
I'm not feeling good about this challenge.
I'm getting a little frustrated 'cause it's taking way too much time, and I can't let this crappy gummy bear send me home.
It looks like shit.
Coming up I cannot get the mold apart.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
There's an appalling lack of makeup.
This is a great concept.
I'm *, getting his head to look like a freaking bear head, man.
- It's just-- - Yeah, bears are tough.
I'm not feeling good about the candy challenge at all.
It looks like shit.
I am tired of looking at it.
I'm tired of thinking about it, and it's killing me.
I just want to do whatever I can do to be safe.
What's that, like, a ballerina? Sugar Plum Fairy.
I grew up on dance.
I love the ballet, and I'm gonna go that route because I'm very strong at beauty and pretty things.
What are you gonna do with the candy? So I'm thinking about putting, like, horns in here, trying to incorporate some of these, like, crystal things.
My concept is it's a sugar rock candy troll, so he's gonna have sugar rock candies coming through his chest and through his face.
- Looks radical.
- Thanks.
- Jenna, how are you feeling? - My hand is totally numb.
I'm just not even thinking about it.
I'm sorry.
I'm not gonna let it get the best of me this time again.
Hey, guys! I'm back with my dad to do the walkthrough.
Having a little difficult time getting him to look like a bear - out of a human face.
- You know what you need to do? Your nostrils are more like a cat.
A bear actually has a hook in his nostril as it come-- Yeah, I was trying to get it-- The hook comes around this way 'cause a bear's head comes right straight down into that nose.
- I see, I see.
- Mm-hmm.
I gotcha.
Yeah, I've been waiting for you all day.
I was hoping you'd come today.
So basically, it's a little pageant girl that ate too much candy and she became the rock candy, and she's a little crazy.
I wasn't sure if I should add more candies to it.
I mean, that's what the challenge is.
Yeah.
So I would take advantage of the candy.
Otherwise you're gonna wind up just a face with a couple of little things here and there.
Now, how are you doing time-wise? I think, so far, so good.
I want to get these molded today, so-- - Everything? - Yeah.
- That's aggressive.
- Yeah.
You know, you're at a point now where it's-- everything is rough, so you need to leave yourself enough time to Certainly.
- smooth it out.
- Yeah.
Tell us what you have going here.
Okay.
She's a sinister tooth fairy.
She gives candy to the kids to rot their teeth.
Try to think of something else to do with the nose.
Either give yourself a little bit more of a bump here - A bump.
- or extend it down.
'Cause this from a distance is almost going to read like a regular nose.
- Regular nose, right, okay.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
I like your sculpture.
It has a nice flow to it.
What are you planning on doing with the mouth? All I'm gonna do is-- this arm's actually gonna be sculpted in with a chess piece.
Right.
So the actor's real arm could be underneath to operate the tongue moving around, so it's not just a big, rubber head.
All right, everybody, good luck tomorrow.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
After hearing from Mr.
Westmore, I don't feel so nervous.
And I know it still looks like a kitty cat, but I have to keep going.
I can't waste all this time sculpting just the face.
So I finished with my sculpting, and I'm ready to mold my facial prosthetic.
I chose silicone because I want to color the silicone, so I don't have to think about airbrushing it on a vacation day.
This is my second time pouring silicone.
Every day here, I'm learning, and I feel that I'm getting better.
I think I'm gonna be silicone master.
I finished the face mold, and now, I want to incorporate licorice into the chest, and I pressed the candy into the clay, so that way, I know where it goes when the foam latex is complete.
It's kind of like a map.
End of day one, I'm sitting pretty good.
I've molded my face sculpture, I've molded my head sculpture.
But I'm looking around, and everyone's hustling, bustling, trying to finish their pieces.
And I'm kind of in a relaxed mode, man.
- Nice, man.
- Have a good day.
That's time.
Tools down.
Good job, buddy.
- Coming in.
- All right.
You're getting really nice edges.
Thanks.
Day two.
It's another ten-hour day.
I still have quite a bit to do, but I'm gonna get busy.
I'm sculpting the arms and blocking out the feet and getting ready for texture.
Overnight, I thought of adding another element to my character, which is going to be this gingerbread house that's morphing out of her back.
It's something that the hag would use to lure children into their homes.
My plan for the day is to get this headpiece finished and ready for foam.
And because this wig piece is one of the main elements of this makeup, I'm spending quite a bit of time on it.
Are you gonna put licorice in that or-- No, I'm-- I think I'm gonna color it like cotton candy.
I have to finish all my sculpting for all my pieces that are gonna go all over her body.
I think I'm gonna go with silicone just for it being a little bit more flexible and moving more natural with the face.
But it's definitely a risk because I don't have much experience at all applying it.
I already have the face, and I'm working on the costumes.
I'm making a top out of the burlap, so I can put the candies on it.
- This looks awesome.
- Thank you.
I'm actually having quite a bit of difficulty with my grip strength in my hand.
What the hell? I'm really frustrated because I cannot get the mold apart.
Why aren't you coming out? And then my mannequin rips off.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point.
I don't-- I don't know what I'm gonna do.
Why aren't you coming out? It's the second day of our candy challenge, and this issue with my hands is really compounding things.
I went to pry it off, and the whole core broke.
I'm feeling pretty screwed at this point because you have to have a core for that foam to form around.
But I'm not a quitter.
I don't like to give up.
So I start looking around trying to find the exact same mannequin that I can actually use as a core because I have to try to get it run in foam today.
It's gonna work, but prying the previous mannequin out of this mold wasted lots of valuable time, but I'm trying not to think about it at all, trying to power through it.
I'm able to get my foam latex face and head molded, and I start pre-painting.
So I'm a little bit ahead of the game.
I need to pre-paint them because I'm adding candy into the head.
Finally finished molding my wig piece and the rest of day two, I'm basically trying to get all the elements I need for the costume.
Start building the applets by taking the lollipops and gluing licorice all the way around it.
We have a little less than an hour left, but I only have one half of my body molded.
This fat suit turns out to be a 250-pound mold, and I have a lot of work ahead of me to get this completed.
All right! Hoo-ha! It's the end of day two, and I'm actually pretty happy with my character.
Everybody, time's up.
I've already glued all the candy in the face.
I already have it pre-painted, so I think I'm ready for tomorrow.
It's application day.
We got four hours in the shop, one hour at last looks at the stage, so I'm gonna have to hustle.
Going into an application day with immunity is a completely different feeling.
If there is ever a time where I'm gonna take my time on something that I want to see done correctly, it's gonna be the application.
Oh, boy.
Hello! - How's it going, man? - Good.
Thanks.
- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
Can you try this on? You're gonna be Colonel Candy.
This leg's gonna be out, and this leg will be tucked in.
First, I glue on her belly appliance, which works fabulously.
All right, let's try this on, see what you think.
I glue on her face appliance.
This thing is literally coming to life, and it's grotesque.
I love it.
I'm just starting to glue down my silicone piece to my model.
This is not sticking right, and it just keeps on lifting up.
I'm a little bit nervous since I worked with a material that I don't normally work with.
I just have no time to lose today.
How does that feel? I have to paint my model green, and the head still looks a little catlike to me, but it looks a little better than I thought it would look.
All right, buddy.
This-- oh, it does come up really nice and hot.
Oh, thank God.
I'm melting bag after bag of gummy products to start coating my model with.
Alex, look at the blob.
I know! Isn't that crazy? I'm starting to get nervous.
I'm going really subtle, and that might be the wrong thing to do, so I'm really worried about what the judges are gonna think.
I start painting, and I'm having some issues controlling my airbrush.
I'm pushing the trigger harder than I think I should, but with my fingers being numb, I can't tell until it comes out.
And then I realize, oh, no, it's too much.
This is not my favorite challenge.
There's a lot of bright, vivid colors in candy, which-- I don't use a lot of those in my makeups.
So I really don't know what my color palette's gonna be at this point.
I'm just trying to make the best of it and get the pieces done, get the candy in there, and then see what happens.
Close.
Turn your head slightly that way.
I really want it to read as a lollipop.
I think incorporating glitter and also sprinkles, it might give it a fun, playful look.
You're gonna be smelling like gummies.
I'm making the biggest mess of melted gummy bears and dumping gelatins on my blob.
It's so fun.
Eric's makeup is just a pile of mess.
It's disgusting.
It's just gross.
What's the time? Seven minutes.
Ahhh.
At this point, I can't even look at what other people are doing around the lab because I am definitely in trouble here with this makeup.
So I'm just concentrating on what's on my plate.
Time.
I am absolutely terrified.
I should have gone with more wacky instead of such a subtle look.
But I can't really throw in the towel because I don't want to go home.
Coming up My actor is stuck to the floor.
There was absolutely no candy in this makeup.
It's just so wrought with technical issues.
This is one of the best depictions of gluttony I've ever seen.
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
We have an hour for last looks, and I've got to get the mouth glued down, and I've got to start incorporating the rock candy.
I know I need to incorporate more of the rock candy coming out of her skin, but I'm really nervous because I don't know if I'm gonna make it prominent enough.
With all the melted down gummy bears, my actor is literally stuck to the floor, and I only got ten minutes to get this solved.
Brushes down, guys.
That's time.
I'm really embarrassed to have this go out onstage.
I'm not feeling very good at this point at all.
Welcome to the Face Off reveal stage.
Tonight, one of you will be eliminated.
First, say hello to your judges-- owner of Optic Nerve Makeup Effects Studio, Glenn Hetrick.
- Good evening.
- Hey, Glenn.
Three-time Oscar-winning makeup artist, Ve Neill.
Hello, you sa-weet things, you.
Creature and concept designer, Neville Page.
Hello, everyone.
- Hello.
- Hi.
And joining our panel this week, he's an incredibly talented artist whose work often features a confectionery utopia and has been showcased in galleries all over the world.
He's also been a frequent Katy Perry collaborator and was the artistic director for her sweets-themed California Gurls video.
Please welcome Will Cotton.
Thank you so much for being here.
Thank you.
I'm so excited to be here, and I can't wait to see what you guys do.
Will Cotton is art director for Katy Perry.
My creature looks like Katy Perry, and they got Will Cotton? He's awesome.
So this week, your spotlight challenge was to create a candy character or creature incorporating actual treats into your makeups.
So let's see what you've come up with.
It's grotesque and yet hilarious at the same time.
Everyone's cracking up watching this belly come to life so I'm feeling pretty positive about it.
I'm hating the stupid wig.
What the hell was I thinking? I hate it.
She looks grey.
All the colors just turned muddy.
I wish I had just a little more time to incorporate more candy, and I wish I would have pushed myself a little harder to be more creative with the candy elements in my character.
I wish I had made different creative choices.
Everyone has so much candy on theirs, and I'm definitely the person with the least amount of candy.
I feel pretty confident in my makeup, and hopefully, I'll be in the top.
Reba's a lollipop character, and I think she looks cute.
It's a little more playful than the other designs, but I like that.
It looks like he walked out of some cartoon and into the real world.
I feel good about this makeup 'cause he looks creepy.
He's missing hands, so that's the only thing I'm worried about.
My character looks pretty.
She looks like she just popped up from, like, candy world.
This creature is everything I hoped it would be and more.
I am feeling so proud of this creation.
Judges, why don't you take a closer look? It's just amazing.
- Oh, my God.
- Do you belly dance? I like the fact that he used-- all these are different colors.
I didn't even realize it till we got up close.
- Wow.
- It's a bit of a mess.
Now, this is a curiosity.
The top of my fairy's head is starting to collapse.
The whole thing looks like a mask to me.
I don't have a good paint job.
I don't have enough candy incorporated into my makeup.
I'm going home.
The whole thing looks like a mask to me.
The top of my fairy's head is starting to collapse.
And the wrinkles have no weight, - they're just gouges again.
- Yeah.
Look at this beautiful little diorama happening back here.
That in itself is a really powerful image.
This edge is absolutely aberrant.
- It's off.
- Yeah.
I can put my finger underneath it.
It looks like he embedded this candy in cookie dough.
That's, like, out of the park.
- Is it silicone? - Looks like it.
I love its translucency.
Wow.
Careful.
Might bite you.
He tried a lot of things here.
I mean, I'll definitely give him that.
There's some beautiful work on the back.
All right.
Will, how do you think they did tonight? It's so much more demonic than I would have ever anticipated.
But really incredible work.
Okay, the judges have scored your creations.
Let's find out what they thought.
Eric Z, Meagan, Anthony, Wayne, Eric F, you are all safe and can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
The rest of you were the best and the worst.
The judges will now speak with each of you to learn more about your work.
Alam, please step forward.
Tell us about your creation.
She's the Princess of the Candy World, and I got inspired from Asian animation.
The lifeless approach to the face gives it a toy quality that I think merges very nicely with the aesthetic of this challenge.
Alam, I think you did a great job of integrating the candy.
- It's very sweet.
- Thank you.
The costuming piece is really smart how you built these different layers and components out of the candy.
She's a cohesive package.
I like this.
Alam, I love the reference to anime.
I think it's a great piece.
- Thank you.
- Alam, thank you very much.
Jenna.
Okay, Jenna, would you tell us a little bit about your character? She tries to get the children to eat candy so that their teeth will rot so that she can have them.
I understand that you have that rock candy crown, but there was absolutely no candy anywhere in this makeup.
It doesn't really feel like you've accomplished the challenge for me.
Your sculpting just looks like big gouges and cuts.
It really makes me think of the Hansel and Gretel witch because she uses this attractive item to bring the children in this gingerbread house, and that's the part that's missing from this character.
She's missing that effective lure.
Jenna, thank you.
Alex, you're up.
Tell us about the concept.
This is a character that ate too much candy at the pageant and then became the candy.
So it was coming out of the skin, and she became evil, and she goes after and kills the other kids 'cause she wants their candy.
In regard * make up application.
You've got some troubles going on there.
There's an appalling lack of makeup for the amount of time that you have.
I just don't know what you did.
It's not even glued down.
How did that happen? She wasn't in it that long.
Well, this is the first time I actually applied a silicone appliance.
But you have to seal the edges on silicone.
You can't just, like, stick it down and hope for the best.
Alex, thank you.
Please step back.
Kris, you're next.
Hi, Kris.
Well, first off, let me hear about your concept.
I came up with a character that is night of Halloween where the candy comes alive, and so the kids eating the candy-- - he would eat the kids.
- I love that.
To me, it feels anatomically believable.
There is something about the way the candy corns grow out of the face.
- I love it.
- Thank you.
Most of all, I love his candy corn fingernails And his lovely candy corn teeth Which are very disturbing.
- Thank you.
- This is a lot of work.
Head-to-toe has been addressed, and I love the concept of using the licorice on the chest as pectoral muscle definition.
It's a great piece.
Thank you very much.
- Kris, please step back.
- Thanks a lot.
House.
Please tell me the concept behind your candy character.
The belly was the first thing that came to me.
A large stomach that she kept feeding with candy, and it had a voracious appetite of its own.
Did you know that she is a belly dancer? - No, I did not.
- Can you do that some more? - That's awesome.
- Oh, my God.
This conceptually is a really great piece.
The mouth is a show-stopper.
The gullet's a great shape, but the worst part of this is body paint that abruptly stops.
But this one is such a great concept.
I just love it for that.
House, this is one of the best depictions of gluttony I've ever seen.
- It blows me away.
- Thank you.
House, thank you very much.
Please step back.
Thank you.
Autumn, please step forward.
Yow.
Autumn, explain to us your concept.
He's a gummy bear, and he's the one everybody picks out, so he's going sour.
Most of the things that you tried to do didn't work out for you.
You're in trouble when my favorite part of your makeup is the wardrobe.
I think your idea of the little hands with the gumdrops is very cute, and you matched his feet.
That's all great.
He does, however, look more like a cat than a bear.
There's no transition whatsoever between piece of rubber and skin.
It's just so wrought with so many technical issues.
Autumn, please step back.
Okay, the judges have heard what you have to say.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room while they make their decisions.
All right, guys, why don't we start with some of the looks you like the most? Alam.
I absolutely adore the combination of the candy with the lifeless doll face that she put on the thing.
This was the only character here for me tonight that I would actually want to put in a painting.
Let's move on to Kris.
He works from far away as just a demon Yeah.
And then when you get close up, it has all the notes of the candy, which is a challenge.
I think it's probably the most well done makeup.
- Yeah.
- Let's move on to House.
The concept is so bold, and that's what I personally love in a character design.
I felt like I was seeing a new character that I'll probably never forget.
Let's move on to the bottom looks.
Let's start with Alex.
We can go on all day about the technical problems because there's no shortage of them, but it starts with the idea.
Yeah, I understood the notion of eating so much candy, and it's starting to work its way out, but why did it have to be themed in a pageant? Okay, let's move on to Jenna.
She's making a lot of mistakes sort of week after week.
It's almost something that had a cool idea behind it that could have been awesome, but it's not getting there.
I feel bad for her that her hands are messed up, but she still doesn't have the ability to make smart decisions, and that doesn't have anything to do with her hands.
Let's move on to Autumn.
- A gummy bear gone bad.
- Mm-hmm.
I'm sorry, but a gummy bear head - is not a very tough sculpture.
- Yeah.
And if you're struggling with that, what else have you got? All right, judges, have you made your decisions? Yes, we have.
Okay, let's bring them back out.
Glenn, tell us about the top looks.
Alam, you had a really cool, artificial, toy-like nature to your makeup, and you did a really good job bringing the candy into that design.
Kris, really interesting design choices, and you also made a lot of great decisions in the way that you integrated the candy into your makeup.
House.
Extremely strong concept, and we really appreciate what you did with your character's profile.
Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? Tonight's winner is-- - Glenn, who is the winner of this challenge? Tonight's winner is Kris.
Thank you.
Appreciate it.
Your use of candy, the different textures, the sculpture-- everything worked well for you tonight.
Fantastic.
Thank you so much.
Well done.
I am in complete shock.
Finally, I stopped Anthony's winning streak.
It's truly a good feeling.
Kris, congratulations.
You can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
Alam and House, you are also safe this week and can head back to the makeup room.
Thank you.
Unfortunately, that means the rest of you were on the bottom this week, and one of you will be eliminated.
Please step forward.
Glenn, tell us about the bottom looks.
Alex, we had a really hard time understanding exactly what it was that you spent all of your time on this week.
Jenna, candy really didn't integrate into your makeup at all.
Autumn, your second-guessing was very evident in your final makeup.
So who is going home tonight? The person going home tonight is Alex.
If you're going to only show us one piece, it needs to be perfect, and this wasn't.
I absolutely agree.
Alex, I'm sorry, but you have been eliminated.
That means the rest of you are safe this week and can head back to the makeup room.
You have talent.
It's obvious, so I wish you luck.
I appreciate the chance I got to actually show you a little bit of my craft.
It's been really great having you here with us.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room and pack up your kit.
- Thank you.
- Good luck.
This has been a wild ride, and I definitely think I made friends till the end.
Third time's the charm.
- What? - What? I knew this was gonna be tough competition coming out here, but I am so not ready to go home.
Even though I am not proud of the note that I'm leaving, you haven't seen everything from me yet.
I'll definitely be around.
