Beauty Bound Season 2 Opens Call for Entries in Malaysia

Starting this August, SK-II once again offers emerging beauty creators across Asia a chance to take their beauty and digital content skills to the next level. Beauty Bound, the search for the world’s next top beauty creator, opens the door to a world of opportunities to creators in participating countries.

Following a successful premiere in 2015, Beauty Bound Season 2 breaks new ground incorporating a first of its kind beauty web reality series involving judges and mentors from varied niches beyond the beauty industry while creating a community of beauty creators for beauty creators.

 

SEASON TWO RETURNS WITH A UNIQUE WEB REALITY SERIES

This year, the search for the next top beauty creator in the region hits the road with a brand new twist. Through a first of its kind beauty web reality series, netizens are given the unique opportunity of following the journey of aspiring digital creators as they chase their dreams to be the region’s next beauty vlogging sensation.

The Beauty Bound web series will feature the trials and triumphs of the shortlisted beauty creators, from the moment they submit their first entry video to their experience in the national semi-finals, an intensive 2-day boot camp (called Beauty Base), to the grand finale.

 

The web series, which will be released on YouTube and shared on various platforms in participating countries in February 2017, will create new opportunities for these aspiring beauty creators to increase their exposure in the region.

 

HEADLINED BY INDUSTRY TRAILBLAZERS BEYOND BEAUTY

This year’s Beauty Bound will place contestants under the wing of top creators and industry experts from varied niches beyond the beauty industry to include leading online film makers, celebrities, and other members of the creative industry. This holistic approach will help hone their skills to be a successful content creator.

In line with the program’s mission to empower and nurture budding creators with the right industry opportunities and network, last year’s winner Janemakeup received priceless opportunities to take her beauty career to new heights.  Some of her experiences included a learning trip to New York City and Los Angeles where she met with SK-II Ambassador and award-winning actress Cate Blanchett, and embarked on collaborations with some of the world’s top beauty creators.

 

The winner of this year’s Beauty Bound will receive an invitation into the exclusive SK-II Global Beauty Circle, which includes an all-expenses paid trip to an SK-II global event, networking and collaboration opportunities with international top beauty creators,  an exclusive 1 week exchange program in the U.S hosted by industry experts like StyleHaul, the largest global style community of content creators, in addition to professional video production equipment and a year’s worth of SK-II products.

 

BUILDING A COMMUNITY OF BEAUTY CREATORS FOR BEAUTY CREATORS

In addition to the web series, this year’s Beauty Bound will also include the establishment of an online community through a dedicated Facebook page.  This creates unique on- and offline learning opportunities for members, via exclusive tutorials, training content, and interaction with some of the world’s biggest creators, industry experts from SK-II and digital giants such as YouTube.
