The MUAs are booked to create summer party looks for global retailer H&M Beauty for an online campaign that will be seen by millions. Joining Val and Dom is guest judge and global creative director for the brand Marjorie Lacombe-Jelinek. \n\nThe MUAs have just two hours to design and create party looks that focus on the brand's eyeliners, eye shadows and stand-out lip colours. Their looks and models are then screen-tested by the judges to see who has hit the brief and created the strongest look, which will then go on to be shot and featured in the global summer party campaign.\n\nThis week’s creative brief is all about Seasons of Change. The MUAs are challenged to create a look inspired by a time of change in their own life. The judges want them to design bold, creative and conceptual looks in two and a half hours. \n\nFinally, the judges decide which two MUAs will go head-to-head in the Face Off elimination, a make-up skill drill under intense time pressure, after which, one MUA packs up their make-up kit and leaves the competition.
