Zuneta Model Search: Only 2 weeks left!

Last week was SO busy, I didn't even have time to post. There are a lot of changes coming up in the next few months so we are pretty busy here at Zuneta HQ.

We are a year old next month and to celebrate, we are going to be relaunching the site with lots of exciting new features that should make the whole Zuneta experience even easier and more fun. The new site will be a lot more interactive, so you'll be encouraged to add your product reviews and comments on our magazine content etc.

We also have our shoot with the winners of our Model Search coming up.

But first, we have to choose our winners! Last week I spent some time at FM Agency, going through all the entrants and seeing who is the most popular with the public and who we think could have a good career as a model. We've had some fantastic entries and I think there are a few girls that could have a great career ahead of them.

As we only have 12 days to go, I thought I'd share some of my favourite entries for each category so far.

Group A: The Redheads

I am looking for a girl that really encompasses the beauty of a natural redhead. Someone with pale skin, freckles and a beautiful tone to her hair. Here are a few of the girls that have caught my eye:

Group B: The Blondes

Blonde girls can be very difficult to cast, believe it or not! I always look for girls that have a beautiful, symmetric face and a quirky look about them. These are some of the girls that I thought were quite interesting:

Group C: The Fair to Medium Brunettes

Group C and E are the most popular categories, and we have had some great entris into both. Group C is my more delicate, English Rose type look:

Group D- Fair to Medium Asian

We need more entries in this group please ladies!!!

Group E: Medium to Tan Brunette

This category probably houses the toughest competition. Some fantastic entries!

Group F: Medium to Tan Asian

I am quite excited about a few of the girls in this category. We haven't had huge amounts of entries for this category though, which is a shame as this is where you can discover some truly stunning girls with long, beautiful lashes to die for!

Group G: Tan to Dark

Some seriously trendy young ladies in this category!

Make sure you vote for the girl you want to see representing you as there are only 12 days to go!

Natural Beauty

Another busy weekend of model entries! I really like the natural pictures that you guys are sending in. Makes it easy to see your potential. A blank canvas.....so that Rouge Bunny Rouge (our make-up sponsor) can work their magic!

Weekenders

We had a real mix of applicants this weekend! It was hard for me to come up with a theme, so instead I have taken a slection of some of the most different so you can see some of the different personalities.

Having said that, the theme could be black & white....and this is our second or third twiggy lookalike!

Enjoy....

Berry lips and A/W tips!

This autumn I have fallen head over heels for the strong lip trend (Chloe, Hussein Chalayan etc) and I have 3 lipsticks that I am getting A LOT of use out of right now. First, one of my favourite lipsticks ever, which is L'Oreal Paris Glam Shine Cream. I loved this brand because its quite sheer, super glossy, nice taste/scent and gorgeous shades. I believe they've stopped selling it now, certainly in the UK, which is a huge shame as that was the brand that converted me back into lipstick. I have two shades that I still use, a gorgeous deep ink which I think must be my perfect shade, and a delicious icy blackcurrant. Its the latter shade that is getting a lot of use right now!

I also have the BECCA Sheer Lip Tint in Milla which is a warmer version of said blackcurrant shade, also quite sheer. The BECCA Sheer Lip Tints are DELICIOUS. They taste of toffee apples and re-applying throughout the evening is an absolute pleasure because of the delicious aroma. Check out our latest beauty trends article for some tips on how to use to make your lips look fuller/poutier.

Finally, I am addicted to Hourglass' Adorn lipstick in Eternal. Now that is the colour of the season. Without a doubt, that is the one! It is so good that I even wore it on a first date the other day. A big no no I know....don't wear overpowering make-up, scares the boy etc but in this case I just had to. I feel quite unstoppable wearing it! Hourglass is our new exclusive brand, launching early October on Zuneta. Can't wait to tell you more.....the products are amazing!!!

So, in honour of my love of the hot lip trends, take a look at some of these gorgeous girls from our Model Comp who aren't afraid of a little colour!

A few more of our faves

The competition has been live for just over a week and the entrants keep pouring in! We even had a small flurry of male entrants, although unfortunately we are only looking for ladies this year! Hopefully we'll be looking for men as well next year for all you wannabe male models out there....

The standard remains high for our entrants and we got a few particularly good entrants over the weekend. One 14 year old was so stylish I couldn't help but twitter about her...is she our Tavi?

Check out a few of our faves from the weekend:

Something for the weekend

Its just gone 5.30pm on Friday and I thought I'd update you with something fun for the weekend! We have no shortage of personality amongst our entrants and here are some of the ones that made me smile!
By the way, doesn't the black and white shot of the blonde in my previous entry look like Diana Vickers? Entrants that look like celebrities...think that might be my next post!

Revenge of the Fashionistas

Respect to the hipsters! Zuneta Model Search
These are a few of the girls we've noticed for their unique style.....

Some of my favourites from the weekend!

The Zuneta Model Search 2010 has launched! And the entrants are coming in thick and fast! Thank you to all of you who are entering- It really is a fantastic opportunity as we are looking for 7 fresh faces that can encompass the Zuneta brand and represent our customers.

We are getting loads of entries and they're all different so I'm going to regularly update you with our faves- today's entries are girls that have taken great pics of themselves. We don't need anything fancy, we just need clear photos of your face and a full length shot, preferably in jeans. Your third shot should be something that really shows your personality! Try not to send us any underwear shots- we want to keep it clean! Just pretty, fresh and simple!
Loving these girls' fun attitude!

The girls below have all submitted nice, clear images. Very easy for us to imagine them with different looks which makes choosing easier!
