JUDGING
Liya: Hello lovely ladies! This week you shot an editorial for Allure highlighting your best facial features, so I am expecting some gorgeous beauty shots from you all. So let's get started, with Agyness as usual.
Agyness: Wow, you might just have the bluest eyes I have ever seen, the color is so deep here and really stands out. I also like your signature androgyny, I am surprised that you didn't choose that as your best feature but your eyes definitely still work. Your bone structure and lips also look great. There's nothing about this that really wows me or stands out though, and lately I've been noticing that about you so work on pushing through more.
Anais: Your skin is simply glowing in this photo, it is the best I have ever seen it look. I love how natural this photo is, that was definitely a risk but it paid off and makes you stand out. There's something a little off about your expression though, there's just a lack of connection and energy. Overall very good job though.
Ashley: The gap phase is on its way out, but I applaud you for keeping it alive. I adore this photo, there is something so charming and endearing about your smile, it looks very genuine and natural. There's a life in your eyes, and overall this photo really stands out. You did lose a little bit of your model quality and it could use some neck, but overall I am still very impressed.
Bianca: You have so many great facial features so I wasn't sure what you would go with, but going with your eyes was a very wise choice because I go straight to them here. Your eyes are so piercing, it's like you're staring right through me, and your bone structure, lips, and skin all look fantastic as well. My only critique is that one eye is higher up than the other, but that took me a minute to notice so it's pretty minor.
Candice: Your first photo was my favorite of your film, but something about it just wasn't quite right for this shoot so I went with this. Your bone structure does look great, but I am drawn to your eyelashes above all else here even though I am pretty sure they are fake. Your skin also looks great and you are working that ugly wig so good job with that. There's a bit too much tension in your neck though, and I wish you had done something different with your mouth. It's definitely a good photo, it's just a bit of a letdown after last week's amazingness.
Carola (postimage was annoying me so I uploaded this to my photobucket): Going with a backstage shot like this was a risk, but it makes this stand out so it paid off. You look so incredible, I could stare into your eyes for hours, though of course my eyes do stray to your unbelievable cheekbones. Your skin also look amazing, and overall I am just so blown away by your beauty in this shot, I barely even notice your lack of neck.
Daria: There is so much going on in this photo, yet I still do focus in on your eyes. You have such a great connection with the camera, your eyes are very captivating and you power through everything going on here. My only critique is that you are a tiny bit harsh/drag looking here, but overall I'm very impressed.
Gertrud: You had a better photo in your film, but I think this one works best and I love how you did something nobody else even thought of. Going for your eyebrows was a risk, but it absolutely paid off, it really makes you stand out and I love your eyebrows in this photo. This really exemplifies natural beauty to me, this is just very natural and raw, yet also angelic and ethereal. I love the serenity of your expression and the flower ads a nice touch. My only critique is that I wish you had done something a little different with your mouth, but overall I'm very impressed.
Karlie: Wow! This is definitely your best shot to date, I love it. There is so much intensity in your eyes, they are so piercing and have such a great connection with the camera, and the color of them is very beautiful. Your skin also looks amazing, and I like the neck extension. I've never noticed how large your forehead is, but that is more of an observation than a critique, great job!
Nadine: You had some better photos in your film that were unusable because they weren't beauty shots, but this is still pretty good. Despite being a bit messy and frizzly, your hair still looks fantastic, and I love how you only have on eye visible. That was risk, but it paid off because it is very captivating and gives this a mysterious and alluring quality that works. I also really like your lips here. I wish you had done something different with your shoulders here though, those are the one thing that bring this down to me, they are a bit stiff and bulky.
Sui: I am surprised that you didn't go for your bone structure, but your eyes do stand out here so I understand. You are connecting with the camera very well, and your bone structure, lips, and skin all look fantastic. Perhaps a bit more energy would help here though because there's something about this that doesn't really stand out, but overall very good job.
