Hosted by renowned beauty influencer James Charles, “Instant Influencer” Season 2 brings together a diverse group of contestants, each with their unique styles and perspectives on beauty. The show aims to test their abilities in various aspects of the beauty industry, including makeup application, social media marketing, and content creation.
The episode began with the contestants facing their first challenge – a group challenge where they had to create a cohesive beauty look inspired by different cities around the world. The contestants were divided into three teams of three, and each team was assigned a city as their inspiration. The cities included Tokyo, Paris, and New York, and the contestants had to come up with a makeup look that represented the essence of their assigned city.

The teams got to work, brainstorming ideas and creating their looks. They had to consider various factors, such as the culture, fashion, and trends of their assigned cities to create a unique and cohesive look. Some contestants struggled with the challenge, finding it difficult to balance their own creativity with the requirements of the challenge, while others excelled in translating the city’s vibe into their makeup looks.
As the challenge progressed, tensions rose within some of the teams as differing opinions clashed. However, with limited time, the contestants had to quickly finalize their looks and present them to the judges – James Charles, celebrity makeup artist Norvina, and influencer and entrepreneur Larray.

During the judging, the Tokyo-inspired team received mixed feedback. While the judges appreciated their bold and colorful look, they felt that the makeup lacked the subtlety and elegance often associated with Japanese beauty trends. The Paris-inspired team was praised for their romantic and sophisticated look that captured the essence of the French capital, with their use of soft colors and elegant details. The New York-inspired team, on the other hand, was criticized for their lack of cohesiveness and failure to capture the edgy and diverse vibe of the city.
In the end, the Paris-inspired team, consisting of contestants Ftima, Ashley, and Cesar, emerged as the winners of the challenge, earning immunity from elimination in the next round. The judges also announced that the remaining contestants would face the elimination challenge individually.

The contestants were given the theme of “Transformation,” and they had to interpret it in their own unique way, using their creativity and technical expertise.
The contestants worked diligently on their makeovers, carefully planning their looks and executing them with precision. Some opted for dramatic transformations, while others focused on subtle changes that enhanced the natural beauty of their models. The judges walked around, providing feedback and guidance to the contestants, and also challenging them to push their boundaries and take risks with their looks.
As the clock ticked down, the tension in the room heightened, and the contestants rushed to complete their makeovers. Finally, it was time for the models to reveal their transformations on the runway, and the judges evaluated each look based on creativity, technical skills, and storytelling.
