Model Search 2010 Finalists

2,500 entrants and 200K votes later, we were ready to go through the top 10's of our Model Search (in conjunction with ELLE, FM Agency and Rouge Bunny Rouge) with FM!

As laid out on the Model Search site, we can only take votes from verified email addresses into consideration to make it fair. Those people that set up scripts to generate email addresses to try to beat the system didn't achieve anything other than causing us issues with our server (due to the bounces such efforts generated) so those contestants had to be disqualified, as we had specifically warned on the Model Search site. However, there were a huge amount of genuine votes and of course, we understand that not every genuine voter would have verified their email address so we only disqualified people who had literally thousands of unverified votes.

Thank you to the huge amount of contestants that took the competition seriously and followed the rules! Hopefully some of you will see yourselves below!

So, these are the official top 10's that were presented to us and FM agency and these are the girls we will be plucking our 7 winners from!

We'll announce the winners on the 18th of November, so GOOD LUCK!!!!!

Group A Top 10

Group B Top 10

Group C Top 10Group D Top 10

Group E Top 10

Group F Top 10

Group G Top 10

We'll be choosing 7 girls that compliment each other, have the potential to have a career as a model, have a modern/edgy look that represents Zuneta aswell as their Phenotype group and that are friendly and forthcoming when we contact them as that is more important than you might think when it comes to success as a brand rep!
Stay tuned for more updates soon....

New Rouge Bunny Rouge goodies!

I have some new Rouge Bunny Rouge goodies to share with you. The new Matte Eyeshadows went live last night. They have already been popular & we only have one left of each! So be quick! The new delivery should be here on Fri or Mon. They are very pretty.....I am wearing blackpepper jay this morning, which is a smokey grey-brown. I am a huge fan of the smokey eye so I was particularly excited for this launch as there is a shade for me for every occasion. My eyes are very very pale blue, so with the right shade of eyeshadow they transform into brighter blue or even green.
The new eyeshadows are available in the following shades:
Grey Go-away Lourie Semi opaque smoky slate grey
Blackpepper Jay Semi opaque smoky black brown
Papyrus Canary Semi opaque palest creamy beige
Chestnut-napped Apalis Semi opaque chestnut puree with a hint of cocoa dust
I am also trying out the new Witchery Modelling Mascara today which is another new RBR launch. This mascara has a moulded brush and uses the popular tubing technology. Moulded brushes can give quite a natural, defined look (like Maybelline's Define-A-Lash) or quite a strong look- like this Rouge Bunny Rouge version. It all depends on the flexibility of the brush. The Rouge Bunny Rouge version is not flexible, so it deposits quite a lot of product on the lashes which is great for volumizing. I am wearing the brown shade today, called Golden Darkness. Still, I think moulded brushes are great for a daytime look and fibre brushes work better for a buildable impactful endlook. But, mascara brushes are very personal so you'll all know which ones you prefer!

Finally, Rouge Bunny Rouge have also come out with a Tinted Moisturiser- called Sketches on Water. I love the name!

The product is very nice, very light. It absorbs straight into the skin, leaving it looking healthy and refreshed. It has quite a high water content which gives it a lovely texture and is packed with botanicals and vitamins which protect the skin from external aggresors (so pollution to you and me!). Nice to even out the skin tone when you are looking to hide behind something but not ready for full on coverage! The only thing for me is I wish the product was in the beautiful glass bottles that Rouge Bunny Rouge do!

Just want to remind you all that there is only 2 days left to use your RBR code! You can get 20% off if you use the code RBRALIST at checkout. Happy Shopping!

More Rouge Bunny Rouge!

Woo Hoo, more Rouge Bunny Rouge stock has arrived! We've added a few new shades both the Sheer Lipsticks and the Colour Burst lipsticks. We've also launched the Flawless Face Powder and the Decadent Duos which is very exciting!

The only problem is, we are almost out of stock -AGAIN! This week the big winner was the Devilish Nectar- Lip Potion which the Beauty Editors have got really excited about. Should be getting more stock of that in a week. The Devilish Nectar uses natural ingredients like Cardomom and Chilli which encourages the blood to come rushing to your lips giving you a spectacular pout without the pain of the very chemically products that flooded the market a few years ago.

But- back to the new products! The first new arrival I want to mention is Raw Silence because it was voted as the 'Best Screen Siren Red' by a retail poll in Singapore. Gorgeous!

The Decadent Duos are great little multi-taskers. One side is a blush and the other is a lip gloss. This s another Beauty Editor favourite and we've got lots of press coming up with these cute little products making regular appearances!
I am definitely planning to move to the RBR foundation this winter as the texture is out of this world. So I am happy the powders have arrived so that I can get involved in those as well....
Sooooo pretty!!!!
Rouge Bunny Rouge are going to be the Make-Up sponors of our Zuneta Model Search 2010 in conjunction with ELLE. Can't wait for that promo to launch! Loads of you have signed up for the launch date announcement so I'm very excited!

Behind the scenes at the Rouge Bunny Rouge Make-up tutorial shoot!

We were very excited to spend Wednesday morning at the Gore Hotel in South Kensington filming our Rouge Bunny Rouge make-up tutorials for the site. Naturally we needed an opulent setting worthy of RBR's fantastical packaging and high-end formulas so we opted for the aptly named Judy Garland room which was utterly perfect. Stunning stained glass windows, rouge draping and a magnificent bed created the pefect backdrop to our lavish setting. Here are some pics from the shoot taken by RBR'S Andreas Ettl. Doesn't our model Dorota look fabulous?! You can see more of the 'behind the scenes shots' by Andreas here
