Face Off (2011) s07e13 Episode Script

It is amazing.
You've come up with something that is triumphant.
Previously on Face Off Dina's graceful goddess wowed the judges Thank you.
and Sasha was sent home.
Now only five artists remain, and tonight, Mother Nature meets fantasy in an epic challenge Sounds easy, right? No.
And for some, the results are disastrous.
Do you really need that? There's no room for error.
Hmm.
What happened? I'm feeling really frustrated.
This is a very beautiful makeup.
It just doesn't get there for me.
In the end, only one will win a VIP trip from Kryolan Professional Make-Up to one of their a brand-new 2014 Fiat 500, and $100,000.
Welcome to Face Off.
- Good morning.
- How's it going? All right.
I was in the bottom again.
Yay! Doesn't that feel so good? No.
Being in the bottom last time was kind of a bummer.
I thought I did a really good job with the makeup, but at least I'm still here, so that's all that counts.
Final five.
Top five is the way I like to see it.
- Yeah, that's even better.
- Yes.
The next challenge, I really have to just bring everything I've got.
It would be awesome if we made it to the finale.
That would be amazing.
I made it to the final five, which feels incredible.
I didn't think I would make it this far.
The person who got me into makeup art is Anthony Kosar, the season four champion.
I should probably thank Anthony for pushing me to come here.
I would be proud to go to the finale with you, Dina.
Same here.
Oh, my God.
Holy fuck.
This looks terrible.
We arrive at Universal Studios, and there's a plane torn in three parts, smoke blowing all over the place, destroyed houses.
I'm thinking it's postapocalyptic.
I have no idea what this challenge is gonna be.
- Hey, guys.
- Hi.
Welcome to the Universal Studios back lot.
This plane is an actual 747, and the set around us was built for Steven Spielberg's War Of The Worlds.
- Awesome.
- That's amazing.
I'll tell you why we're here in a bit, but first, let's talk about your next spotlight challenge.
Let me transport you to the fantastical world of a playful, mischievous creature that has appeared in audience favorites like Peter Pan, Harry Potter, and True Blood.
Fairies.
Fairies? Uh, okay.
Everything I make is oozy and snotty and gross, so my excitement level definitely crashed.
Some believe that fairies are beautiful spirits associated with the four major elements.
Fire, water, earth, and air.
So your spotlight challenge is to create your own beautiful elemental fairy.
Nice.
Sounds pretty easy, right? No.
Yeah, well, of course it's not.
In this case, Mother Nature has gone awry, unleashing her elemental power and destroying everything in her path.
Spread throughout this plane wreck are five monitors, each one featuring a disaster scenario caused by Mother Nature's unparalleled power.
You'll each choose one of them and create a beautiful fairy born from its destruction.
All right.
I've never made anything pretty before, and to incorporate disaster into a pretty makeup, that scares the hell out of me.
On my go, I want you to run into the wreck and choose one of the disasters.
Then you can work on your sketches before heading back to the lab to get started.
I'll come by later on with my dad to check in and see how you're doing.
All right, good luck.
Ready, set, go! Aah! What's that one? It's avalanche.
Ooh.
Yeah.
Wildfire.
I pick earthquake for my natural disaster.
So I decide she lives under the crust of the Earth, and she comes out whenever there's an earthquake to fix all the damage that the earthquake has caused.
I'm gonna build up one of the model's shoulders and have it all cracked off, so she can sort of lift it a little, and it'll look like a fault line.
I might paint her in, like, browns and tans and then bright red, glowing lava in the cracks, but, honestly, this is so far out of my realm, I'm just guessing at this point.
I'm making a wildfire fairy.
Her job is to spread fire and then inspire regrowth.
The top part of her's on fire, but the bottom is leaves and grass and flowers.
I'm not sure how I'm going to achieve this, but the only thing I can think of is to sculpt flames on her somehow.
My natural disaster is flood, and my concept is that the flood washed away the land, and this new fairy was born from it.
She's bringing elements from the flooded land back to life.
Floodwater is brown, but I don't want to just cover her head to toe in mud.
I also want to bring some greens and blues into it to brighten it up a bit.
My beautiful fairy uses her magic to clean up the oil spill.
She is doused with oil.
She's got rocky, crystalline formations on her body to represent the Earth.
It's gonna look like a high-fashion runway piece.
My concept is, this fairy got caught up in an avalanche.
She almost froze to death, but her fairy magic kept her alive, and now she's like an ice fairy.
I have never done a beauty makeup, so that's got me worried.
But then I start thinking of this more as, like, a beautiful piece of art, rather than a beautiful makeup, and that's kind of helping me.
I'm drawing these big ice wings and ice spires coming off her shoulders and her head, and I think it looks pretty cool.
Hey, everyone, let's go back to the lab! What'd everybody get? - Earthquake.
- Avalanche.
- Wildfire.
- Flood.
Awesome.
We get back to the lab, and we have six hours.
We pick our models, and the first thing I start working on is the face sculpt.
I need to focus on the nose, the chin, and at the same time, I start working on my chest and shoulder piece.
I'm a little worried about this design.
I don't know if what I want it to look like is beautiful.
I get right to work on the cowl, and I'm drawing inspiration from, like, glaciers and how they form, and it's very hard edges and jagged lines, so I'm trying to sculpt this cowl and shoulder piece that resembles ice spires growing out of someone's body.
Hey, guys, we're here to check in on you.
Hi there.
All right, so tell us about your fairy.
Okay, so my fairy rises through an oil spill in the ocean.
So she's going to be very sandy and rocky, and these rocky elements enhance her brow and her cheekbones.
You might even be able to extend the nose just a little bit more to give a fairy look to it.
Yeah, I thought about giving her slight upturn at the end.
- That's good too.
- Yeah.
- Very good.
- All right.
I heard you guys have been taking selfies.
- Oh, yeah.
- We need to take one.
I think-- Is this your first selfie? I think so.
This is my dad's first selfie, everybody.
Ready? Nice.
Thanks, guys.
First one, nice, dad.
You did it.
Good job.
It was a good one.
She's kind of like an ice fairy.
Okay, that's what this is gonna be then.
This is ice, all right.
What's your thought with the makeup now? Well, I've never done a beauty makeup before.
You know, the thing is, listen, you know how to shade and whatever.
I did a whole beauty makeup with an airbrush one time, and you can do that.
Just remember to keep everything soft, - and you'll be fine.
- Okay.
I want to do, like, very delicate flames around the face.
And then the cowl is gonna be like wind is blowing the flame backwards.
Great.
You know, what's gonna help to make it is your painting.
I wouldn't be concerned so much with black, because this is supposed to be a really beautiful makeup, and getting too much black into it - would be a problem.
- Okay.
I'm thinking of all the things that you would find in, like, a flooded river area.
I know this is probably crazy.
I was thinking about covering her face in sand.
But it has to be very subtle.
They actually have in the supplies here - gelatin crystals.
- In the back room.
In the back room that you could use for that.
- Okay.
- Good.
- Excellent.
- Cool.
Did you get it? I got earthquake.
She is all cracked up.
This is gonna be a chest piece over her heart.
Now, with the face here, it's so thin in areas, I don't know if foam latex would go that thin.
Okay.
You might need to do that in silicone if you're gonna go with the whole face like that.
And then in here, you're gonna paint Yeah, this is all gonna be reds and yellows to make it look like the Earth blood, the magma, and stuff like that.
Do you really need that? It's going to look like somebody sliced your fairy open.
Yeah, like, bloody.
Hearing Mr.
Westmore tell me that there are things that won't work with my makeup stresses me out.
Your whole fairy has to be attractive.
We're down to the final five, and there's no room for error.
I can't make a mistake, or I'm gonna go home.
Coming up I'm gonna have to come up with another strategy.
I'm feeling really frustrated.
Aw, come on! It's not very inventive.
It's absolutely stunning.
This is all gonna be reds and yellows.
Your whole fairy has to be attractive.
It's day one of our elemental fairy challenge, and Mr.
Westmore's telling me there are things that won't work with my makeup, and that's very stressful.
- It's going to look like-- - Gore? - Gore, muscle.
- Horror, yeah.
It could be blood or something.
- Gotcha.
- Yeah.
Do you think it would be a better idea to just stick with Earth colors? I think so.
I need his advice.
I'm really stuck at this point.
All right, so to recap, we got nose, chin, nix the red.
And also, I think your cheeks might be able to use a little bit more - The-- the-- - Yeah, yeah.
- Can I get a picture of that? - Yeah.
- Oh, you're beautiful.
- Ah.
Everybody's got a great direction in this challenge.
Keep it up.
- Thank you, guys.
- Good job, guys.
- Bye-bye.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
- Bye.
So after the walk-through, I completely scrap the whole magma concept.
And now she's gonna be mossy and green in all the cracks to show rebirth and regrowth.
Plus, she's gonna have a happy Mr.
Westmore smile.
He does have some good apple cheeks, right? He actually invented apple cheeks.
Today, I have to figure out how I'm gonna create this oily look for the body make-up.
So I decide to do some experimenting.
I start by mixing powdered gelatin, glycerin, sorbitol, and zinc oxide powder.
I think this is working really well.
It's really looking like crude oil.
I get it all melted up in the microwave and start painting it on my mannequin and making these really cool drips and runs and smears.
_ - Uh-huh.
- Smart.
After I finish sculpting the cowl for my flood fairy, I start working on some blender pieces.
I'm trying to think of things that would be mixed up in that water-- sand and pebbles and twigs and bark.
I'm trying to incorporate all of those things into my makeup.
So I get my face to a good place, and now I'm ready to mold.
I'm gonna be casting my face out of silicone, and silicone's kind of finicky, so I need to make sure that I make the best mold possible.
The flashing overflow area that I build up has to be perfectly smooth so that when the mold is actually opened, it all comes out nicely rather than catching on textured areas and ripping.
I'm ready to mold the face, and I know that molding this will be difficult because of all of the shapes in the flames, but I figure if I'm really careful, it should look pretty good.
Hmm.
I may need to reengineer this.
Halfway through the application of the gelatin on this mannequin, I realize that this is gonna become a mess.
Hey, guys, that's time.
There's gonna be logistical problems with my model living in this makeup for a few hours, like going to the bathroom, being comfortable, being able to sit.
This really sucks, because now I'm gonna have to come up with another strategy.
Yes! Today's the second day of our fairy challenge, and we have 9 1/2 hours.
Yeah, that broke.
None of the flames that I sculpted on the face filled with foam, so now I have to bake it again overnight.
I don't even know how to rescue that.
I'm starting to like this character a lot more than I thought, being a fairy challenge.
And I've always wanted to do and ice makeup, so it's looking pretty cool.
Since I need to fabricate wings, I don't want to spend too much time finishing out the details on either sculpt.
I'm gonna do these wings that are big and spire-y and all.
Kind of heat-form them a little bit, so it looks like ice and probably airbrush on top of them.
Beautiful.
I realize that I can't work on the friggin' bodysuit again until application day, because I have to have wings, otherwise, my makeup's not gonna read as a fairy.
So I find a sheer fabric, and it looks like dragonfly's wings, which is exactly what I want, and I see these peacock feathers, and I attach them to this sheer, iridescent fabric, and they look beautiful.
The issues with the face sculpt and mold means I know I'm gonna have even bigger issues with the cowl sculpt.
_ I'm making bigger flames, much bigger than the ones that are on the face, because I have to match the design, and I don't have time to change the whole concept.
_ So I cross my fingers, and I hope for the best.
One thing I do know about fairies is that they're supposed to have wings, so I find foam noodle.
I take a heat gun, and I scrunch it up with my hands, so it looks like bark, and then I find these giant banana leaves.
So I'm just gonna glue those all together and hope it doesn't look like shit.
I really have to get this mold open and cleaned out today.
Otherwise, I'm going to have to run in poly foam on application day, and I've never run a cowl in poly foam before, so the idea terrifies me.
Don't break.
There's all this clay stuck in all of the flame points, and I'm freaking out, 'cause I can't get the clay out.
And that's exactly one of the things I was worried about with this mold.
Do you need another hand? Are you good? I'm just gonna power-wash it.
Okay.
I've got to go outside and spray it with the hose, which I don't want to do, because I'm going to end up with a wet mold, and I could get all sorts of air pockets.
Aw, come on! There's just, like, two that won't come out.
I don't know if I'm gonna pull this together.
Aw, come on! It's day two in the lab, and I'm having a really hard time cleaning out my mold.
That won't come out.
I can't get the clay out.
I've got to spray it with the hose, which I don't want to do, because I am going to have a wet mold.
Typically what you'd want to do is get all of the moisture out of the mold before you would ever put foam in it.
But I only have about 20 minutes left, so I don't have time for that.
So now I'm worried.
There's a chance that I could get all sorts of air pockets, and I'm really nervous about what it's gonna look like tomorrow.
I have a little more time left in the day, so I decide to start experimenting.
I'm trying to figure out the best way to make mud.
It has to be wet.
I can't just cover her in dirt, so I actually find some chocolate syrup in the lab.
I mix some cornstarch into it and heat it up, and it turns it into, like, a jelly.
In special effects, you don't really think of using food, but I think it's gonna work really well for this actually.
Look at this bitch now.
Oh, yeah! That's time.
I'm so done with today.
So it's the end of day two.
I have everything ready to go for application.
I have a lot to do, but I'm really happy with it so far.
Hopefully, when I get it all put together tomorrow, she'll be a beautiful fairy.
It's application day.
We have four hours in the lab and one hour in last looks.
Oh, shit.
What happened? The first thing I see is my cowl.
Are you kidding me? It is destroyed.
Well, I'm going home.
All of the flame points have broken off.
Oh, no! They all ripped off.
It's okay.
You have time to fix it.
I have to patch it, and there's a lot to patch.
At least the face came out beautiful the second time, but if I don't get this cowl fixed, then what do I have, flames on a face? That's not very interesting.
My foam looks pretty great.
There's a couple rips in the sides of the face, but I can make it work.
Everything else looks good.
Now I just have to get it all applied.
Hi! How are you? How are you doing? - Good to see you again.
- How are you? - Great.
How are you? - I'm good.
I'm having some technical difficulties.
I've never done anything pretty before.
I'm happy that I listened to Mr.
Westmore's advice.
The silicone piece looks pretty cool, but I'm still not feeling great.
This challenge, it's just-- It's not me.
I mean, everything looks kind of like fairy parts, but I don't even know what that's supposed to look like.
Whoo.
I decided to put the oil on a dress instead of directly on the body.
I just start carefully creating the drips and runs to create this oil spill couture, hmm? I really think this new approach will make it a lot easier for my model to wear this makeup.
- I like her.
- I love it.
There we go.
The paint job on this application is really important.
I am painting her from head to toe, and she's gonna be covered in mud, so I really need to bring those colors into my makeup.
If I don't do a beautiful paint job, she's not gonna be a beautiful fairy.
Oil spills have this rainbowlike effect on the surface, so I'm gonna start with my flat white base, and then I'm going over that with pinks and greens and blues, and then I go over the whole thing with Kryolan Aquacolor and a sponge to give it this really beautiful, iridescent sheen.
Looks really pretty, and it's perfect.
One hour, guys! Shit, I just started painting.
Awesome.
Everyone else seems to be almost done with their paint job, and I've just started, so I know I'm in a bad spot.
On the head, I'm actually using the chocolate sort of gelatin that I made, because I know it'll set up well.
I'm actually having a lot of fun with this challenge.
And she definitely looks like she rose up from a flood, so I'm feeling pretty good.
Oh, shit! It's almost the end of the day.
I notice that there's a really weird wrinkle at the corner of her mouth.
That's time, guys! I have no idea what I'm gonna do with this giant wrinkle.
Hopefully, I'll figure out some way to fix it.
Because I've been in the bottom the two challenges before this, if I don't do a perfect makeup, I could be going home.
Coming up The edge on the face is starting to crack.
I think she's really delightful.
It just doesn't get there for me.
- Oh, getting wobbly.
Getting wobbly.
- Hi, honey.
All right.
I start painting immediately.
I think if I can get it painted well, I won't be so embarrassed the foam came out so horribly.
I'm gonna add some eyelashes, touch up her beauty makeup a little more.
Awesome.
She looks exactly like I envisioned it, so that's good.
As I'm airbrushing white around her eyes, some of the white stays on the eyelashes, and it looks like frosted eyelashes.
Cool! I'm unintentionally doing beauty makeup.
Yeah.
Time is flying, and I have to figure out what I'm gonna do with that wrinkle at the corner of her mouth.
Make it look like her face is cracked.
Not a bad idea.
Megan, being the awesome model that she is, says, "Well, why don't you make it another crack?" It looks like a crack, so I paint it like a crack.
It's not ideal, but it's way better than having a wrinkle there.
I'm realizing the edge on the face is starting to crack a little bit.
Placing the edge there to begin with was a stupid, stupid choice, but I'm hoping that the overall beauty of my makeup will overpower that flaw.
Ten more minutes.
It's time, guys! Cool.
Time's up, brushes down.
I feel like I've at least satisfied the challenge, but there are only five makeups.
For me to have this giant crack on the side of the face, maybe the judges will hate it, but it's hard to tell.
Welcome to the Face Off reveal stage.
Tonight, one of you will be eliminated.
First let's say hello to our talented judges.
Owner of Optic Nerve Makeup Effects Studio, Glenn Hetrick.
- Good evening, guys.
- Hi, Glenn.
Oscar-winning makeup artist Lois Burwell.
Hello, group.
Hi, Lois.
Creature and concept designer Neville Page.
Hello.
Hi, Neville.
Okay, guys, this week, your spotlight challenge was to choose a disaster scenario and a create a beautiful elemental fairy born from its destruction, so let's take a look at what you've come up with.
The shapes look cool.
The flames all have direction, but I know up close, it looks terrible.
I'm really kind of surprised, 'cause I thought it was gonna be, like, the worst makeup I've ever done, but it looks decent.
Seeing her in front of the background makes me a little more confident.
She really looks like she came from that environment.
She looks high-fashion, runway fairy oil spill madness, and I love it.
She's all glittery and shiny and glowing.
She looks really cool, and I'm really happy.
Judges, why don't you take a closer look at our fairies? Why? You're filled all the way in with-- You're full up, covered in prosthetics, and you drop an inch right there.
I don't understand.
It's a strange margin across this bustier.
Yes.
I love the coloring, especially around the eyes.
Wow.
- Oh, this is lovely.
- Gorgeous.
This paint on the chin, on the arms, I mean, it's still all very connected.
That's the great thing.
Could you move your arm out, so we can kind of see that close and open? Come forward.
That's cool.
Really, really cool.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
That's rad.
Yeah, it is.
This is so nicely done.
I like all the transitions.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Why is that edge in the middle? I do not know.
Would have been equally successful under here, plus it would have allowed you to have the seam surfacing all the way down.
It does turn it into a Venetian carnival mask.
I have a horrible edge across the middle of my face.
There's only five of us left, and at this point in the competition, any mistake can ruin you.
We want to know what you think of tonight's transformations.
As it stands, why are there edges? It does turn it into a Venetian carnival mask.
Mm-hmm.
They should have come down to the jaw.
I really want the judges to see the overall fashionable aesthetic that I've gone for, but I'm worried that that horrible edge across the middle of my face could possibly send me home.
Gorgeous.
He's using warm tones to make the coolness of the eyes pop out.
Really smart decision instead of going really dark.
These choices of crystalline form match with the wings.
It's very complete form language.
Yes.
Could you turn, please? I like the wings.
I think the wings are absolutely brilliant.
Yeah, I agree.
Thank you.
Okay, the judges would like to speak with each of you to learn more about your work.
George, if you'd please step up.
George, tell us how you allowed earthquake to inspire your fairy character.
I was thinking a fairy who lives below the Earth's crust, and when an earthquake happens, she comes out to mend and renovate everything.
I think the facial appliance is absolutely beautiful.
Thank you.
And you didn't get crazy with these shapes and make it cartoony.
It's a very nice balance.
You've done a really, really nice job this week.
Thank you.
I absolutely loved your fairy.
I think that the use of the arm was extremely skillful and clever.
More than that, the face reminded me of some of the fairies from Legend.
Wow.
Thank you.
The face in particular is captivating.
It's so well-balanced.
You've managed to have the perfect amount of point and softness at the same time.
It's gorgeous.
Thank you.
George, if you'd please step back.
Good job.
Stella, please step up.
Stella, please tell us about your fairy.
I wanted her to be completely encased in flames on the top, and then wildfires inspire new growth, so down below, I wanted her to be full of new growth.
The concept is nice, but it hasn't been fulfilled.
And the transition from the charcoal burning to the appliance itself is so abrupt.
Had color transition been used, it would have a different feel.
I think that the overall image and the palette is really quite beautiful, and it does satisfy the challenge, but I would say that it's not very inventive.
It's kind of like the first thing you're going to think of for a fire character.
I know you're creative enough to come up with something that would have been more inventive as a concept.
The massive issue for me is that she needs wings.
Ultimately, it doesn't feel like a fairy.
It feels like a fire elemental or something, but it just doesn't get there for me.
Okay.
Stella, if you'd please step down.
Dina, you're up.
So tell us how flood influenced your fairy.
She was born in a flooded forest.
A river overflowed onto the land, and she rose from it.
I thought I would incorporate some driftwood, stones, sand, you know, a mixture of all things, you know, water and land.
This is a very beautiful makeup.
Thank you.
You retained the model's aesthetic, but you didn't do it in such a way that you made it mask-y.
I really like this makeup.
The subject matter calls for the mud and the heaviness, and yet you have managed to capture the lightness.
You have quite a range of colors here, and the transitions are handled so beautifully.
It's a beautiful makeup, and everything else that you've designed, including the prosthetics, just highlight that makeup.
Thank you so much.
Dina, please step back.
Thank you.
Yay.
Good job.
Thanks.
All right, let's talk to Drew.
Drew, tell us about your oil spill fairy.
She is an Earth spirit fairy, who lives in the ground, and there was an oil spill, and so she's using her powers to clean up the mess.
What do you think of your creation? I like almost every aspect of it, except for my horrible decision to cut the prosthetic across her face.
If I had a time machine, I would go back in time and smack myself really hard.
Yeah, absolutely.
That should have gone down to the bottom of her chin, so you bury that edge.
My other major complaint is, there's a disconnect in terms of the dress into her face and everything.
I think that you could have added a little bit by letting the oil spill out of her mouth and then have her neck covered in black and tying the oil together in the rest of the body.
I think what is missing is the gloss that's happening from the oil dripping down across her chest-- there's none of that gloss in her hands.
That would have helped communicate the story a bit better.
The thing is that you've gone for a nice iridescence, but it would have worked better had you gone for dark round the eyes coming up into the hair, and then it would have been a look that would have worked.
Thank you.
Drew, please step down.
Cig, you're next.
Please tell us about your avalanche fairy.
My fairy was a mischievous mountain fairy.
Mother Nature sends an avalanche to take her out.
She almost died, but her fairy magic saved her, so now she's imbued with ice powers.
I think she's really delightful.
Can you tell me how you made the wings? I wasn't sure if it was gonna work, but I just cut out clear vacuform plastic, and I used a heat gun and hand-warped it, and I hot-glued all the pieces together.
I think they're exceptionally good.
Awesome.
I can't tell you how well I think you've done.
It's really excellent decision-making in picking the ice, using that to drive your decision-making on your shapes, and it's absolutely stunning.
With the headpiece and the body and the wings, you've sustained a harmony in form that is so consistent that this character feels very whole.
Thank you guys so much.
Cig, if you'd please step back.
Thanks.
All right, guys, the judges have heard what you have to say.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room while they deliberate.
- Thank you.
- Thanks, guys.
All right, judges, let's talk about the looks you like the most this week.
Why don't we start with George's earthquake-inspired fairy? It was really quite accomplished, especially the face.
The face was the best part.
I agree.
Beautiful facial makeup.
Beautiful points-- Well-colored, well-sculpted, good use of silicone.
One of the best I've seen on the show.
There was a grace and a beauty there.
I think it was the most fairy of all of them.
All right, let's talk about Dina.
She showed such grace in her application, keeping the face light and figuring out how to transition from a bunch of different dark colors without the entire thing looking muddy.
It was absolutely the correct choice to have a white face.
Dina's visual acuity is a force to be reckoned with here.
All right, let's move on to Cig's avalanche fairy.
That was beautifully handled, from the lip line to the way the eyes were applied.
Everything about it was exceptionally well done.
This super cool idea for a makeup, and then he added the wings, and he knew that that would bring it all together and allow it to succeed within the parameters that we gave him.
All right, let's move on to the looks you like the least.
Stella's wildfire fairy.
The biggest problem for me was the lackluster concept.
It felt solid and stiff and cartoon-like.
She made a mistake with a design that she didn't fully understand this week, I think.
All right, so what do you think about Drew's oil spill fairy? What makes it less than perfect is simply technical decision-making.
Mm.
He was heading in the right direction, but where he let himself down was the way the edges are, the choice of color round the eyes, and not tying his elements together.
All right then, judges, have you made your decisions? Yeah, we have.
Okay, let's bring them back out.
Glenn, tell us about the top looks.
George, we love the sophisticated alterations to her nose and chin, and we thought that the shattered shoulder was a super cool way to represent your disaster.
Thank you.
Dina, you did an exceptional job morphing one color into the other, and she was still beautiful, despite the fact that she was covered in flood debris.
Cig, focusing on the wings to tell your fairy story was brilliant.
And her soft, almost angelic look, very well handled.
So who is the winner of this challenge? The winner of tonight's challenge is So who is the winner of this challenge? The winner of tonight's challenge is Cig.
Whoo! No way.
Yeah! She was picture-perfect with her crystalline wings, her icy crown, and a beautiful color palette.
She oozed fairy.
Thank you so much.
That's awesome.
I've been on the top so many times, and I just haven't got my first individual win.
Now I get it on a fairy challenge.
That feels even better, because I went out of my element, and I did something that even surprised myself.
Cig, congratulations.
Thank you.
You, George, and Dina can head back to the makeup room.
- Thanks so much.
- Thank you.
Good luck.
Unfortunately, that means you two are on the bottom this week, and one of you will be eliminated.
Please step forward.
All right, Glenn, tell us about the bottom looks.
Stella, we thought you very successfully captured the essence of your disaster, but between the abrupt transitions and the unfinished paint, it just didn't come together.
Drew, many parts of your makeup were on the precipice of brilliance, but all of its parts didn't quite add up, and it left us feeling unfulfilled.
So who is going home tonight? The person going home tonight is Stella.
You had a tough week, and, unfortunately, at this stage of the game, even a tiny stumble is something that you can't afford.
Stella, I'm sorry, but that means you have been eliminated.
However, Drew, you are safe this week and can head back to the makeup room.
Love you.
Stella, you've done remarkably well.
There's absolutely nothing that you should feel upset about, and you leave here knowing how much you've achieved, and that's wonderful.
Thank you.
Stella, it's really been great having you here with us.
If you'd please head back to the makeup room and pack up your kit.
Thank you.
Thank you so much, guys.
- Good luck, Stella.
- Good luck.
I'm feeling a little bit sad, but I feel like I've come really far in this competition as an artist.
It's me.
Ohh.
Stella.
This experience truly has taught me what I am capable of.
Aww.
I know I still have so much to learn, but I plan on learning it.
I love makeup, and I just want to do more.
