    Asia’s premiere modelling competition is back for Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 6. The photo shoot this week was sponsored by Neutrogena with the girls having to portray one of the scents in Neutrogena’s Rain Bath Shower Gel line. Joel Lim is back behind the lens. Read on for my Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 6 review and how the girls fared in their photo shoot this week.

    It’s another studio shoot and there’s water involved so it’s par for the course for a Neutrogena-sponsored photo shoot. Having the girls constricted into a space the size of a bathtub adds a nice challenge. (I’m just hoping that the water was at least lukewarm and not ice-cold like last cycle’s shoot.)

    So who among the girls floated to the top and who sank to the bottom? Here are my Top 3 and Bottom 3 photos for this week…

    Asia’s premiere modelling competition is back for Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 5. This photo shoot was sponsored by Maybelline NY (Make It Happen!) with the girls having to rock one of three looks styled by make-up guru Nigel Stanislaus. Shavonne Wong (Zhiffy Photography) is back behind the lens. Read on for my Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 5 review and how the girls fared in their photo shoot this week.

    I’m okay with this theme. I didn’t mind seeing the Singapore skyline again. I also didn’t mind seeing that Roman-architecture-looking stairs that they’ve used as a backdrop since Cycle 1. The photos are much better shot than last week. Even though there are three different looks, the photos look cohesive enough in terms of composition and framing that they all look like they belong in the same ad campaign. An even bigger plus is that all of them looked good.

    So who among the girls made it happen and who were not it? Here are my Top 3 and Bottom 3 photos for this week… (more…)

    Asia’s premiere modelling competition is back for Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 4. This time it’s a group shoot. With Yu Tsai behind the lens, to boot. Read on for my Asia’s Next Top Model Cycle 5 Episode 4 review and how the girls fared in their photo shoot this week.

    I like this theme better than last week. The styling is more on point for all of the girls. The clothes for each girl have their individual styles but cohesive as a group. What I don’t understand though is the low camera angle. Yu Tsai shot the girls low to the ground, but as you can see in the final results, that angle is not flattering for almost all of them.

    That aside, most of the girls brought their A-game this week. So who among the girls who stood tall and who stumbled out and under the bus? Here are my Top 3 and Bottom 3 photos for this week… (more…)
