Quick answer: Start with a small color palette, practice one tool at a time, then build a look around the round’s theme. Players vote, so no look guarantees a win.

Create your first look

  1. 01

    Read the theme and choose a focal point

    Pick eyes or lips as the main feature. Choose one main color and one accent before starting; this is our suggested workflow, not a scoring formula.

  2. 02

    Test the tool on a small area

    Choose a product on the tool rail, select a color, and try one small stroke. Adjust brush size and strength before painting a large area.

  3. 03

    Build the main shapes

    Finish the eye and lip shapes before adding fine decoration. Zoom out after each major change to see whether the theme still reads clearly.

  4. 04

    Finish with styling

    Try hair and lashes, inspect the face again, and leave the final part of your available time for corrections rather than starting a new detail.

Fix the mistake before adding more makeup

What looks wrongTry this firstCheck before continuing
Stroke is too wideUndo the last stroke and reduce brush size.Try a shorter stroke before repeating the full shape.
Color overwhelms the faceReduce strength for the next test; correct the existing mark with the available controls.Compare the whole face, not only the zoomed area.
Both eyes look crowdedSimplify one feature instead of adding another accessory.Make sure the eye shape is still visible at normal viewing size.
Considering ClearUse Undo for a single recent mistake.Read the Clear action carefully; use it only when you intend to restart.
Timer is nearly finishedStop adding details and fix the most visible imbalance.Prioritize a complete, recognizable look.

These are editing suggestions. A changed interface may expose different correction controls; check the current labels before resetting your work.

How to think about themed rounds

The official description confirms creating makeup, styling characters, competing in themed rounds and voting for favorite looks. Our suggested approach is to make the theme easy to recognize, finish the main look first and save detail work for remaining time. These are design suggestions, not hidden scoring rules.

A 30-second finishing check

  • Look at the whole face: can you identify the theme without zooming in?
  • Check whether hair or lashes obscure the detail you spent the most time on.
  • Compare the two eyes, the lip outline and any unwanted marks.
  • Keep one clear focal point; remove a distracting extra if time allows.

Use this as a personal checklist, not a fixed round timer or a promise of votes.
