This episode was broadcasted live on June 24, 2023. The logo of Icydoll’s Fashion Courtroom flashes on the screen, an upbeat song starting to play as the show begins. The cameras show the live audience clapping from different angles. As the music reaches a culminating point, the cameras transition to a pair of vertiginous high heels as two doors open on the set. Soon enough, Icydoll walks out, smiling at the audience. Icydoll is wearing a Glasier Los Santos trompe-l’oeil dry wet dress, she keeps smiling, waving at the audience as she steps up to the stage, finally sitting down on the armchair. She crosses her legs and looks up at the camera. Icydoll says: Thank you, thank you. Welcome, darlings, to the Fashion Courtroom, where style is law and fashion is put on trial! Before we start, make sure to share your thoughts online with the hashtag #FashionCourtroom! Icydoll says: Let’s not waste any time because we have a /lot/ to unpack today. Court is in session! Icydoll flashes a dazzling smile to the cameras, the audience applauding for a brief moment as the screen flashes the logo of the first segment: Party Patrol. Icydoll says: Alright, alright. We’ve seen a lot of events happening in the fashion industry during the past weeks, which brings us to our first segment: Party Patrol! Today, we’ll be focusing on one of the biggest events of the month… As you guys know -unless you’ve been hiding under a rock, which- if you have? It’s okay, you didn’t miss much… (Icydoll giggles, shaking her head and wafting her hand in front of her.) Icydoll says: I’m sorry! Jokes aside, earlier this month, Prestige Global Network threw an event: the Prestige Fashion Show and the Miss Los Santos election. (Images and clips of the fashion are displayed on the screen behind Icydoll, courtesy of PGN’s Facebrowser.) Icydoll says: Your girl attended. /Of course/. How could I miss one of the biggest fashion events? Icydoll says: So, the event happened at the Richman Hotel, where the pool was transformed into a runway. We’re all accustomed to Miss Hendricks’ peculiar taste, which transpired throughout the event. Icydoll says: I think the setting was an interesting choice by Prestige. To me, it was giving very much mid-2000s America’s Next Top Model vibes. The runway over the pool, the fake plants in the water? Shoot, I was surprised the models didn’t come out walking in some inflatable human-sized pool ball like in that one episode. Icydoll chuckles with the audience, glancing down at her cards before clasping her hands around her knee. Icydoll says: I know a lot of people think the Richman Hotel is a hot location for events. I mean, it’s in Richman… fancy right? I’m guessing this is why Miss Hendricks picked it as the venue for the show. I mean… at least Ashley is making it easier for sex workers to attend- The audience gasps, laughing out loud. Icydoll says: What? It’s true. We all know what goes on in that hotel… Hahaha! In all seriousness though, the event was MC’d by Miss Carry Saunders and was split in two parts. Icydoll says: First, the fashion show and then the election of Miss Los Santos. Before we get to my opinions on those, I would like to congratulate Miss Meryem Shirinova for winning the crown. Let’s clap it up for Miss Los Santos. Icydoll begins clapping, the audience joining in thereafter. She’d nod and settle down, smiling at the camera before continuing. Icydoll says: Yes! Congratulations to her. Miss Shirinova brought home a flashy title and a big check. $250,000 if I remember correctly. Okay Prestige! Big ballers. Miss Los Santos has taken to Facebrowser to express her joy after winning the title. I quote: “I am Miss Los Santos 2023! It does not matter where you are from, what religion you believe in or how you look, everybody is damn beautiful! I want to thank everyone who did not stop believing in me!” End quote. Icydoll says: We also secured an exclusive interview with Miss Los Santos following her election. Let’s have a look. Icydoll shifts to the side slightly, glancing at the screen behind her as the interview begins rolling. Liv Callahan is wearing an elegant white dress shirt layered with a short camel tweed dress, with her collar tied by a printed scarf; with miniature Mona Lisa paintings hanging from her ears. Meryem Shirinova wears a custom made blue dress with gold panthers on it. She combines this dress with gold jewelry and matching blue shoes that have exactly the same color of the dress. Liv says: Hello there, Miss Shirinova! First and foremost - congrats on making history as Miss Los Santos 2023! (Liv speaks with a relaxed tone, overacting at times. She flashes a wide smile at the camera before turning her attention fully to Meryem.) Meryem says: Hello, good evening! Well thank you so much for having me here tonight! You look fantastic tonight. (Meryem would have a calming voice that scratches a little when she speaks. You can hear her Azerbaijani accent and she also rolls her "R" slightly.) Liv says: Why thank you. You look amazing yourself. Now–... I have to ask, what was going through your mind when they announced your name as the winner? Did you imagine you’d wind up taking the win unanimously? Meryem says: To be honest with you, I didn't expect to win the competition. I have not been in the model industry very long and I am still learning a lot every day. Every woman who participated in the contest were all terrific, especially the three other finalists who also had great potential to be Miss Los Santos. I really appreciate that the jury saw the potential in me. When I was named as the winner, it was such a wonderful feeling, I didn't know how to react at first, but I surely know I will never forget that night! Liv stares right at her as she speaks - attentively nodding along to each of her words. Liv says: I can imagine. It was quite a win— You definitely charmed the jury! Now, Meryem— You’re on a contract as a model with Prestige. Tell us a bit about your experience working there. What has it been like collaborating with one of Los Santos' most influential fashion companies? Meryem says: That is right Liv! Working with Prestige has been absolutely fantastic! When I started in May, I received such a warm welcome from all the members. But I can only say that you have to be open to learn a lot, because you really learn new things every day, whether it's fashion tips, modeling practices, meeting new people or just simple stories of experiences, everyone helps each other. Liv says: That's right!... Actually, I'd love to ask more about that. You've been in the public eye with Prestige for just over a month. You've gone from being a new face in the industry to being crowned Miss Los Santos. What's the secret behind your meteoric rise to success? Meryem says: First of all, be self-confident, do that and wear what YOU think is right. Then there is also that you should just be yourself. I was born in Azerbaijan, and my culture is not comparable to the culture of Los Santos. I am proud to bring my culture to this industry and to be able to be who I am. And last but not least, never give up, because only people who keep getting up in a fight are true winners. Liv says: Now— As Miss Los Santos, you'll be representing the city on various platforms. In fact you’ve already made a speech at Diversify’s latest Pride event supporting donations for LGBTQ+ related associations. Meryem Shirinova keeps her posture while talking. She has a smile on her face while she talks. She moves her hands elegantly and confidently during the conversation. Liv says: What other initiatives or causes are you passionate about advocating for this year? Meryem says: I just want to make sure that no matter what you look like, what religion you believe in, what gender you love or where you come from that every single person out there is beautiful and that everyone should have the same opportunities. Liv says: Now... Since this week's theme is the latest Prestige Fashion Show and party. Any fun anecdotes on that night? A sneak peek into the party’s behind-the-scenes shenanigans, per se? Meryem Shirinova laughs for a moment at the question. Meryem says: Oh yes! The evening contained a lot of nervousness, joy, but also fear. We were all a little afraid of falling into the water to be honest. We made a bet that if someone fell in the water, they would have to color their hair pink for a whole month, and believe me that was a great motivation to give our absolute best. We kept each other motivated the whole evening and that was definitely a positive feeling, because we are one big family who supports each other. Liv says: Moving on now. What can we expect from you in the future, Miss Los Santos? Any exciting projects or collaborations coming up you’d like to announce? Meryem says: Well first of all, as a model you will see me in magazines, on catwalks, fashion events and much more! You will also see me often at Sessanta Nove in the future, because I am the assistant manager of this clothing store and together with my business partner Ines Nervetti we will make sure that the brand is in good hands. Liv says: Sessanta Nove, huh? Should we expect a new collection in the near future? Meryem says: Yes for sure, and there will be something exciting coming up for all the Prestige fans, so stay tuned! Liv says: Exciting! Will it be a new phone case? (Liv asks with a smile. She crosses her legs again.) Meryem Shirinova shrugs her shoulders and chuckles afterwards. Liv says: Well Miss Shirinova, thank you so much for joining us. Congratulations again on your big win. We can't wait to see what you have in store for us in the future! Meryem says: Thank /you/ for having me, love! Olivia Callahan slowly turns to the camera. She cracks a wide smile. Liv says: This was Liv Callahan, back to you Icy. The clip stops rolling, cutting back to Icydoll and the set. She’d nod her head, turning to face the audience. Icydoll says: Thank you Liv. We’re all really happy for Miss Los Santos. Anyways! I do have some opinions on all of this. Of course, these are just some /suggestions/. Take it or leave it. But honestly… you should definitely take it. Icydoll says: So, the first thing I would have changed- besides the location but we’re over it now- is the attendees list and the seating attribution. Of course, the event was open to the public which is admirable, I’m always happy to see fashion being more accessible… However. Icydoll says: In any decent runway show such as in Liberty City, Paris, London or Milan… the seats are usually deliberately assigned to relevant people in the industry. That ensures that designers, editors and other fashion people get the best look at the collection. Especially in the front row. Unfortunately, Miss Hendricks went the “VIP” route, which is surely more appropriate at a club or at a bar. Once again, I attribute that decision to Ashley’s peculiar taste. (Icydoll flashes yet another smile before resuming.) Icydoll says: My first advice to Ashley… Girl. You need to scale that shit down. The seats were empty! Also, why the hell were there /stalls/? I was very confused. I couldn’t tell if these stalls were tarot readers or hot-dog stands but all I know is that it was giving county fair… Let’s keep it simple next time. You only need three things. Icydoll says: One, a good venue. Two, a guest list. Three… an actual collection? Haha! (Icydoll chuckles in her palm, side-eyeing the camera with a playful gaze before glancing back down at her cards.) Icydoll says: Overall… I have to say that I liked the idea of the event, but I was disappointed by the execution. (Clips of Prestige models walking the runway roll on the screen behind Icydoll.) But at least the lookback video was shot well, kudos to Edward Carter. Icydoll says: Anyways… I think I gave y’all enough context. I know y’all want to get to the interesting part. It’s time for our next segment: Trend Tribunal! (Icydoll claps her hand in anticipation, flashing a dazzling smile as the jingle of the next segment starts to play.) An upbeat bouncy song introduces the next segment as the audience claps. Icydoll maintains a dazzling and charismatic smile until the music ends and the audience simmers down. Icydoll says: Alright, alright. Order in the courtroom, we’re getting into what matters the most… Fashion! Just so you know, this is my favorite segment. So! Today we’re obviously gonna look at the looks of none other than the judges of Miss Los Santos. The jury was mainly composed of familiar Facebrowser faces. (Icydoll glances down at her cards.) Icydoll says: Of course, Miss Ashley Hendricks was one of the judges, along with her sister Chloe. Local icon Miss Faith Labelle was also present, along with Mister Aaron Kim and Miss… Ava Baker? (Icydoll seems perplexed for a second, before continuing to list the panel.) Another judge was… “Prestigious Model” -whatever that is- Victoria Cavalcanti… And last but not least Miss Raen DeJagger! Alright, enough talking, let’s get into the looks. The first look appears on the screen, it is a black and white picture of Ashley Hendricks and Faith Labelle posing on the event’s red carpet. Ashley is seen wearing what looks like a plain crop top along with belted chino shorts and an open trench coat. She accessorized the outfit with several layered choker necklaces and cross print fishnet tights. Icydoll says: So our first defendant is none other than Ashley Hendricks herself. Hmmmm. Let me take a closer look. (Icydoll thins her eyes out, turning to look at the screen.) Okay, so. Ashley is known for her pretty laid-back style, which is why I’m not surprised by this look. Would I go as far as saying that I /like/ it? Absolutely not. Here’s why: Icydoll pauses to pick up her “Icydoll’s Fashion Courtroom” mug. She’d take a long sip before resuming. She’d point at the mug, saying jokingly: Icydoll says: It’s Casamigos, if you were wondering… Anyways, my issue with this look, besides the fact that it’s definitely not appropriate for the occasion… The accessories. I think Miss Hendricks would have been fine rocking that crop top and these shorts, if she dressed them up. Actually? (Icydoll raises a finger, taking a couple seconds to reconsider.) No, the crop top has to go, just the shorts. Shorts are cute and comfortable for summertime, and very easy to dress up when you know what you’re doing. The cameras cut to the audience nodding and carefully listening to Icydoll as she speaks. Icydoll says: First of all, the fishnet tights gotta go. Don’t get me wrong, fishnet is still trendy -mostly on the East Coast- but cross print /and/ fishnet is a little too much information in my opinion. My advice to Ashley? Try to incorporate fishnet in different pieces. Recently we’ve seen a surge of fishnet on the runways of Liberty City, but in unusual forms. A fishnet dress, a fishnet top to layer. The world is your oyster. The screen behind Icydoll switches to some images of Liberty City streetwear looks, showcasing fishnet used as a layering piece such as an undershirt or a statement piece such as a fishnet bag and a fishnet dress. Icydoll says: Yeah, this is more like it. /I/ personally wouldn’t rock this look but I think Miss Hendricks could pull it off. (Icydoll flashes a brief smile.) And as for the trench coat… once again, let’s modernize a little. It’s summertime so there is /one/ rule to keep in mind. Short jackets, in. Long coats, out. Unless it’s a statement piece which in her case isn’t. You have multiple options, Miss Hendricks. It could be a tweed jacket a-la Proenza, it could be a blazer if you’re going for a more business core look. In that case, my personal favorites are the cinched checked jackets that we’ve recently seen A.W.A.K.E. do for Spring Summer 23. The screen showcases some examples of the suggestions Icydoll just made. Icydoll says: Yes… love those. My final suggestion is to leave the stacked chokers in 2016 and opt for something a little more mature. According to her Facebrowser page, Miss Hendricks is /thirty-eight/ years old. And I know she can afford some /real/ jewelry, so here are my alternatives: Icydoll says: One way to go which will /never/ fall out of style is “Less is more”. Don’t get me wrong, doing too much is fun sometimes, but you have to pull it off. I think Ashley's style calls for thin, barely-there bracelets or necklaces, stud earrings. Discreet jewelry. A lot of Italian brands have been releasing cute bracelets this season, Anna Rex is also one of my go-tos for quality discreet earrings. The screen flashes different Anna Rex jewelry pieces, in particular the “Bourgeon” and “Or Rose” earrings. Icydoll says: I'm actually wearing earrings by Anna Rex today. They’re really perfect for any occasion. This is more age-appropriate, for one. More elegant, for two. And it looks like real jewelry, not what my little cousin gets from Claire’s! Oh and the necklace is Glasier. (Icydoll beams a wide grin to the cameras.) Overall, I give Ashley’s look a five out of ten. It’s bad taste but it’s not /horrible/. Anyways, let’s take a look at our next defendant. The screen switches back to the red carpet photo, this time focusing more on Faith Labelle. She’d be seen wearing a red and black ball gown decorated with arabesques, along with a black standalone hood and a singular fingerless glove. Icydoll says: Oh! Let’s get into Miss Labelle’s look. Faith’s look is definitely more appropriate for the occasion, however I do have some suggestions, still. Firstly I love the effort and I especially like the finger waves she did, unfortunately she chose to cover them with a… hood. Icydoll purses her lips, perplexedly looking at the screen. She eventually looks back at the audience, lifting a finger to say: Icydoll says: Nah. (The audience begins laughing, Icydoll doesn’t pause, continuing:) No but for real, the hood has to go. There was an attempt but it didn't work in my humble opinion. As for the dress. I believe this is a bridal dress, but in red and black.. Hm-... The dress, ugh. One side of me wants to say cunt, the other side wants to say tacky. Knowing Miss Labelle, camp was her goal. I understand the idea but… Icydoll says: I really fucking hate the dress. (The audience gasps.) I know! I’m sorry! Faith, you know I love you but I can’t lie to the audience… I hate this dress. Here are my alternatives: Icydoll says: If we wanna serve camp? Then I’d head straight to Antonio Marra’s modernized rococo bridal dresses. They’re fun, they’re thoughtful, they’re camp. Simone Rocha and Molly Goddard are also great options for this vibe. (The screen behind Icydoll shows the dresses made by the designers she mentioned.) I could definitely see Miss Labelle in either one of those, if the goal is to give camp. Camp doesn’t shy away, you have to go /all out/. Faith is one of the few people that actually can pull off camp so I’d like to see her in something even bolder. Icydoll says: I give Miss Labelle’s look a six point seven out of ten. We love the effort, we want to see a little more research, better references. Moving on! The screen fades to a press picture of Aaron Kim walking towards the jury desk in a khaki tailored suit and dress shoes that are definitely a little too bulky for the cut of his pants. Icydoll turns to look at the picture, flashing a smile at the sight. Icydoll says: Okay. Mister Kim went for the traditional route, a suit! Normally I’d say it’s a boring choice but I absolutely love this suit on him. Aaron does have taste. It’s tailored, the color complements his skin very well… I don’t have a lot to say about this look. I think it’s simple but it works. Icydoll says: Actually! The shoes need to go, it’s giving daddy but not in the right way. Like it’s giving /dad/. I give Mister Kim’s look an eight out of ten. It’s appropriate for the occasion, it’s simple, it looks good… and /thank God/ it’s tailored. There’s nothing I hate more than a non tailored suit. Let’s move on. A picture of Victoria Cavalcanti fades in on the screen behind Icydoll. She’d be seen wearing a burgundy mini dress with a plunging neckline and pleat details. Icydoll says: So this is Miss… (Icydoll looks down at her cards once more, double-checking before resuming.) Victoria Cavalcanti. Hmmm. I don’t really know what to think about this look. I think it does look pretty good on her. The color is pretty bold, it contrasts well with her skin tone. This is a bit basic to me, maybe a little too much? Don’t get me wrong, I love deep necklines. However in this instance, I think the combination of the neckline, the color /and/ the length of the dress is… tacky. Icydoll says: I think Miss Cavalcanti has nice legs, so I don’t mind seeing a short dress on her. (Icydoll glances at the screen, inspecting the look once more.) Okay. Here are my recommendations though: We want to keep the hemline around the mid-thigh. To counterbalance the length, I would go for a higher neckline, maybe even some sort of bodice. I may be wrong but given her name, I’m assuming Miss Cavalcanti is Italian? I can see her in a romantic look. Icydoll says: Some details like small crystal embellishments or ruffled embroidery with a sky-high hemline would be perfect on her. That way, the legs are shown off and the eye isn’t distracted by everything going on on the upper half. (Examples of whimsical mini dresses seen on European runways roll on the screen as Icydoll gives pointers, they’d focus on fabric and material over provocative necklines.) Icydoll says: I give Miss Cavalcanti’s look a… seven out of ten. It’s okay. I mean it’s kind of cute but yeah. Not anything groundbreaking. You look good, Miss Cavalcanti, let’s try something a little more researched next time okay girl? Anyways… The screen transitions to a picture of Chloe Hendrick’s look at the event. She’s seen wearing a pink short blazer, paired with a white skirt and top. Icydoll turns around once more. Icydoll says: Ah! Miss Chloe Hendricks. Mmh. Well, it’s a pink blazer and a white skirt. (Icydoll glances at the audience.) Y’all see anything crazy about this? (She pauses with pouty lips.) The cameras cut to the quiet audience, showing their blank faces for a few seconds. Icydoll says: Exactly. I don’t have anything special to say about this, all of the advice I’ve given earlier applies to you too, Miss Hendricks. Let’s be a little more daring, we’re /soooo/ bored right now. (Icydoll feigns a yawn, flipping her bundles behind her shoulders as she plasters her media-trained smile back on her face.) Icydoll says: Baby, that outfit could put a cup of coffee to sleep. I give you a four out of ten because you wasted some screen time with this outfit. (The audience laughs.) Icydoll says: Alright my loves, I think this is enough looks for tonight. There were two more judges but I think my brain is overstimulated by all of the mistakes. I need a break. (Icydoll fake wipes her forehead dramatically before picking up her mug and taking a sip.) Icydoll says: Before we conclude tonight’s episode… guys. Y’all know I love me some drama. (She flashes a devious smile, taking yet another sip, this time with widened eyes.) I think it’s time for our last segment… Scandal Sessions! The same upbeat song introduces the final segment as the audience cheers and claps, ready for the tea. Icydoll giggles behind her palm, smiling ear to ear as she waits for the audience to settle down. Icydoll says: Alright my babies, we've reached the climax of tonight's episode and guess what? I've been saving the juiciest sip of tea for this very moment. (Icydoll's pearly whites gleam with excitement.) Today’s scandal is on theme with the rest of the episode, because it /allegedly/ happened during the Miss Los Santos election. The cameras show the anticipating faces of the live audience as Icydoll nods her head gravely. She’d then flash a quick grin before speaking again. Icydoll says: Now, let me set the stage for y'all. Picture this: the Miss Los Santos pageant, where the jury allegedly had many connections. Yup, seven folks all intertwined with Prestige in some way or another. You feeling the bias already? Cause I sure am. Now, there were twenty-five contenders vying for that Miss Los Santos crown. Miss Meryem Shirinova took home the title, as we all know. But here's the tea... Taking a dramatic pause, Icydoll takes a sip of her mug, milking the suspense as the audience leans in. Icydoll says: Rumor has it—keyword, /allegedly/—that things weren't all sunshine and stilettos. Some people are saying the election might've been rigged. Allegedly, of course. Don’t shoot the messenger, I'm just here to spill it, baby! People are side-eyeing the fact that the entire jury had a Prestige connection. Conflict of interest? I mean, if there were any non-Prestige contestants in the mix, how fair was it for them to go up against Prestige models with a Prestige-packed jury? Icydoll locks eyes with the audience, raising an eyebrow as if to say, "You feel me?" Icydoll says: Right? I mean, if I were in their place, I would also find it shady. But hey, what do I know? Out of those twenty-five beauties, Miss Los Santos was unanimously crowned by the Prestige jury. Now, I get why the public is side-eyeing this whole situation. I think Miss Hendricks could've invited some fresh faces from the fashion scene who aren't glued to her company. There are plenty of names out there, like Anna Rex for example, who could've added some spice to that jury. You feel me? Cause in any legit democratic election, you don't want just one party ruling the panel. Icydoll says: And oh, how I would've loved to hear Miss Hendricks defend herself against these allegations. I'm sure she's got a perfectly reasonable explanation... or so we hope. But alas, she was apparently unavailable to share some words. Icydoll says: Well! Whether or not this shit is actually true, we’re interested in knowing what /you guys/ think! (Icydoll looks straight into the camera, pointing at it with a wide smile.) Remember to share your thoughts with the hashtag #FashionCourtroom! Icydoll slowly puts her cards down, clasping her hands together as she concludes the segment. Icydoll says: That wraps up tonight's episode, my darlings. Thank you for joining us in the Fashion Courtroom. We'll be back in no time with another episode. (Icydoll flashes a dazzling smile.) Court is adjourned, mwah! The theme song of Icydoll’s Fashion Courtroom plays as Icydoll slowly stands up. She’d wave at the clapping audience before strutting towards the exit of the set, showcasing her Glasier dress one last time as the credits start rolling.

She begins to stunt, and pose for the camera, highlighting her angles for the audiences’ amusement. With a bad bitch attitude, and a doll face, Icydoll greets the viewers into her makeup routine.] Icydoll says: “Hey Diversify! It is currentlyyy… almost 6AM here in the city of Saints and today I’m bout to show you my simple day-to-day makeup routine. This is basically just sheer and dewy skin with smokey chocolate eyes and my usual lip. You’ll see what I mean.” Icydoll says: “Please bear in mind that I am NOT a makeup artist so if you catch me doing some ghetto shit– wait I don’t know if I can cuss in this…” Icydoll says: “Anyways, y’all get what I’m saying. This is just some lowkey basic Icydoll makeup.” Shot 2 (Cleanser) [Secondly, the woman’s phrasing idles a conversational sentiment to the audience. She begins to showcase the following products; the Glamglow SUPERCLEANSE™ Cream-to-Foam Cleanser, the Mario Badescu™ Glycolic Acid toner, the La Mer™ Revitalizing Hydrating Serum and lastly, the La Mer™ Creme de la Mer Moisturizer.] [After the presentation of said products, Icydoll begins to execute her skincare routine to appropriately prep her skin ahead of showcasing her makeup routine.] Icydoll says: “Okay so the first step is to wash my face using the Glamglow Supercleanse cleanser… y’all remember when everybody was using Glamglow back in the day? Yeah well I never stopped.” Icydoll says: “Some people used to swear by that Glamglow mask but to be honest it never really gave anything for me… masks in general, I’m like… go get a facial baby.” [Icydoll photogenically adjusts her frame into a lowering positioning, circulating the tap to ensure that its liquid begins to splash against the sinks’ crevices. She’d dollop a singular formation of the cleanser against her palm, issuing the cleanser in a circular motion against her skin, albeit briefly.] [With the appropriate cleansing occurring, and her perception halting in its clenching motioning, Icydoll begins to immediately reach her palms towards a clean towel. Her perception enables its sight as the towel prods, and pats against her eyes, and skin accordingly. A refreshing sigh releases past the woman’s lips as she blinks to the camera lens.] Icydoll says: “PAT dry, baby, PAT. Don’t rub. This is why y’all get fine lines. You not drying the kitchen counter, take care of that skin for me, okay?” [Icydoll emits a single laugh.] Icydoll says: “Now I’m gonna use the Mario Badescu Glycolic Acid Toner, guys if you’re not using glycolic acid you need to start tuh-day, okay? I’m not even lying.” [Icydoll perches her handling against a bottle of toner, lubricating a cotton pad with its contents. She begins to dabble the Mario Badescu Glycolic Acid Toner’s liquid against her skin, peering towards her reflection in the mirror as the cotton pad swaddles the toner across her skin.] Icydoll says: “Basically glycolic acid exfoliates your skin without disturbing your skin’s PH balance. I love it, personally. Don’t blame me if it doesn’t work for you though cause y’all like to believe everything on the internet. Do your research or whatever…” [Momentarily, Icydoll verbalizes a passive aggression. She, however, amends her tone by presenting a charming smile to the audience.] Icydoll says: “Okay now I’m using the La Mer Revitalizing serum. If you know you know.” [With the woman’s hands perching against the serum, her digits pump against the product, squirting various droplets against her palm prior to circulating the product against her forehead.] Icydoll says: “Wait, talking about PH balance. Y’all I got a bone to pick with y’all cause y’all got me tight sometimes. So why am I seeing more and more of these weird ass brands selling vitamins and products for your kitty? You know what I’m talking about.” [Icydoll continuously converses with the camera, idling the moisturizer bottle towards the camera; highlighting its existence in a generic influencer-style. She’d immediately unfasten its lid, kneading its contents against her skin in upward motioning.] Icydoll says: “It’s a whole new year so it’s time for everybody to stop inserting unnecessary shit inside them, okay? You just eat some fruit and stop drinking that Migos everyday and that balance will sort itself out, okay? Like… and if it don’t? You go see a doctor, not no Coochievitaminsbykayla…” [Icydoll temporarily judges the audiences’ lifestyle. I mean, how could she not? As her perception lingers towards the camera lens, a deadpan sentiment conveys within her eyes. A pursuing emotion tremors within her lips as the camera pans appropriately into the third-step within the woman’s makeup application.] Shot 3 (Applying Concealer) [Throughout this step, Icydoll relatably utilizes her finger for concealer application. The Dior™ Backstage Concealer obscures any imperfections residing against the woman’s skin, although few in its presentation. “4W” bestows against the concealer’s surface, indicating as a preference to Icydoll’s shade range. She appropriately gestures the products in front of the camera during this segment to ensure the viewers’ brand awareness.] [As for foundation, Icydoll utilizes Dior™ Backstage Foundation as her foundation choice during this process, blending the product into her baby-face by utilizing the glamorous Fenty Beauty™ Full-Bodied Foundation Brush 110.] Icydoll says: “Alright guys so now my skin is ready for makeup. I personally don’t use a primer before doing my makeup cause I keep it sheer for the skin and also I have like three layers of skincare on my face… like how primed do you need to be girl?” [Icydoll stifles a singular braid back into its initial positioning, prodding the braid into the contents of the bun, resuming her makeup routine despite the braids’ tendency to waver beyond its bun.] Icydoll says: “First step is concealer for me, I use the Dior Backstage concealer in shade… 4W. I only put it on any sort of scar or blemish I have and to highlight a little. Some people like to go heavier on concealer, do your thing, but I don’t want my face tats to be hidden so I keep it sheer.” [Icydoll slathers select applications of concealer against her skin with the tip of her fingers. She’d target the concealer against specific areas, such as the woman’s z-tone area and any suitable ‘problem areas’. Although the guest, Icydoll, has no problem areas; her application of the concealer manoeuvres in an unnatural premise due to her acrylic nails. In this moment, Icydoll pats her digits against her bare skin in a strategic manner.] Icydoll says: “Don’t tell me nothing, I know I’m using my hands. I told y’all I am not a makeup artist this is the real me.” [Icydoll emits a subtle giggle. Her hands begin to prod against the concealer, wherein the product begins to blend in its consistency.] Icydoll says: “Okay so now that this is done, I’m gonna use the Dior Backstage foundation in the shade 4W0. I like to use the Fenty Beauty foundation brush to blend but I actually don’t really like the Fenty Beauty foundation so… yeah.” [Momentarily, the woman flashes the foundation bottle, and accompanying brush to the audience.] Icydoll says: “I like to use a brush to blend the foundation because I think it melts into the skin better than with a sponge or my fingers. Again I don’t want it to look like I have a whole caky wall of foundation on, I like to build it up.” [The foundations’ application process transpires in swiftness; wherein Icydoll’s grasp against the brush circulates against the product layering against her skin. After brief circulating motions of the woman’s brush ensuring that the product blends against her skin, the camera pans to the succeeding step of the beauty routine.] Shot 4 (Blending Contour & Highlight) [During this segment, Icydoll supports black owned businesses, utilizing the Fenty Beauty™ Match Stix Skinstick in the shade “Truffle” to contour, wherein said contour blends in its transparency by the woman using the Fenty Beauty™ Precision Makeup Sponge.] [Towards the finalization of the fourth segment, Icydoll begins to sway rhythmically, and sing to “Ride” by Stunna Girl. Various bleebing overlaps the profanity within the context of the song as it blasts throughout the bathroom environment from the woman’s cellular device.] [Noticeably, during the panning into the third segment, Icydoll’s eyebrows were filled-in during the cameras’ temporary halt. The woman’s eyebrows, in particular, appear to be micro-bladed to the trained eye. Additionally, viewers may notice the unblended concealer fluctuating around the woman’s eyebrows prior to the defining stages of the application process.] Icydoll says: “For contour I like to use the Fenty Beauty Match Stix cream contour in shade “Truffle”. I just did my eyebrows off-camera too, it’s not that interesting. I just fill in any light spots and cut them with the Dior concealer and an angled brush.” [In an initial application, Icydoll clutches against a stick contour cream, applying its long, thin lines below her cheekbones. Afterwards, Icydoll postures her hand against a beauty sponge, and begins to blend the beauty streaks appropriately.] Icydoll says: “Then I blend out the concealer around my eyebrows first, then the contour using the Fenty Beauty sponge. I don’t really contour my nose cause I think it’s cute the way it is but if you need to then now would be the time too.” [A stillness rekindles within the woman’s wording as she showcases her blending technique to the audience, accompanied by her stray perception idling towards the mirror in a fluctuating manner.] Icydoll says: “Y’all, you know one of my guilty pleasures? Ahhhh, I can’t believe I’m saying that out loud.” [Icydoll emits a single laugh.] Icydoll says: “Y’all know Zeus Network right, ahaha! Bruh these Baddies West auditions have me listening to Stunna Girl again.” [Momentarily, Icydoll clasps her hand against her cellular device. She’d begin to blast ‘Ride,’ by Stunna Girl for the audience. An audible singing verbalizes from the woman as the beauty sponge’s prodding consists in a blending momentum against her skin, and her footing appropriately side-steps to the beat.] Icydoll sings: “I’ma ride yo ni- *beep* face, he looove how my pu-*beep* taaaaste!” [Icydoll’s fingers prod against the phone, immediately halting its music from blasting to the impressionable audience. A light-hearted embarrassment conveys against her facial demeanour as the camera pans into the beauty’s routine following step of the routine.] Shot 5 (Eyeshadow) [With a stern handling in Icy’s grasp, an appropriate brush utilizes as a tool for the palettes application process. Her brush dabbles against the neutral Mario™ Master Mattes Eyeshadow shades, with an index finger pointing towards the specific shades during the transgression of said brush blending against her eyeshadow.] [Momentarily, Icydoll’s cellular device acts as a necessity during the application of her lashes. She showcases True Mink Lashes, presenting the PR box in a temporary state. Her handling perches against tweezers as she manages to place the false lashes against her own in underneath a minute duration; indicating to the woman’s expertise.] Icydoll says: “Okay so now I’m gonna start working on these eyes y’all. Everybody knows the signature Icydoll look is the dramatic lashes. You will never catch me with no lashes on, like I just think it doesn’t look as glamorous without them, you know?” [After announcing her intentions, Icydoll grasps her hand against the Mario™ Master Mattes Eyeshadow palette; exhibiting its exterior to the audience prior to dipping the brush in a neutral brownish shade. She’d begin to strategically contour her lower eyelid to increase its presenting warmth.] Icydoll says: “I like this palette by Makeup by Mario. I just use my fingers and I place it on the lower eyelid, just a bit like this.” [A halt occurs in the routine as the woman’s hand grapples against her cellular device, utilizing the front camera to examine her makeup progression closely. Her perception ogles towards the camera in a squinting manner during this specific step.] Icydoll says: “I just try to smoke it out a little bit and then I use this lighter shade to blend it out a little.” [Yet again, the palette exhibits its presence towards the audience, as Icy’s index finger points towards a specific shade. Her words spiral into nothingness as she begins to process onto her second eyelid, pausing momentarily to converse with the audience.] Icydoll says: “So for years I used to get lash extensions, right? But lately I’ve stopped because it’s honestly annoying how you can’t really rub your eyes and how you have to be careful when you do your skincare and everything. I’m back to falsies now and I’ve been happier, I can’t lie.” [Recounting her return to false lashes, and her spiral into makeup obsession, the woman’s handling adjusts as her hand positions against True Mink Lashes. Without a doubt, the brand would be recognized by few as a small beauty brand. After displaying a humble sentiment in her conveyance, her digits clamp against a pair of tweezers to acquire the lashes; positioning them appropriately against her own lashes to extend said lashes, and to enhance a sentiment of glamor within her appearance.] Icydoll says: “So today I’m gonna use these lashes I got sent the other day. Thank you… “Nubian Beauty” for these lashes.” [The finalisation to this specific step includes the Valentino Beauty™ Twin Liner and Essence™ I Love Extreme Mascara as application products. Simply, Icydoll curls her eyelashes to precision, gesturing its wand in an extending manner beneath the lash in various strokes.] Icydoll says: “Alright… purr. I like these lashes, I see you Nubian Beauty. Now I’m just gonna do a simple liner and add mascara to blend the lashes. I don’t like to do a really long wing, I just like to darken the lash line to make it look seamless.” [An appropriate cut occurs in the videos’ footage; transitioning the frame to the next step.] Shot 6 (Setting Face) [In the sixth segment, Icydoll applies a light layer of Anastasia Beverly Hills™ Loose Setting Powder in the shade “Warm Peach”, utilizing an Anastasia Beverly Hills™ A19 Pro Brush to set the baking powder.] Icydoll says: “Okay we almost done now. I like to set my face after I do my eyeshadow so I can dust off any fallout. This is the Anastasia Beverly Hills loose powder, the girls that get it get it. I been loyal to this shit for yeaaaars.” [Icydoll flashes the powder product to the audience; flashing the brush in a similar manner. The brush patterns against the powdery substance prior to Icydoll’s elegant hand powdering the product subtly against her face.] Icydoll says: “So I don’t really believe in baking guys. I feel like it just makes me look flat and cakey so I really only use a small amount to set everything in place. But if you’re going for a look like them London girls or something then I would recommend baking with a lighter shade or you could even go translucent, to be honest.” [The woman converses to the audience whilst circulating the brush against her face. Without a doubt, Icydoll’s complexion is beat to the Gods. Her lips, however, remain undone in the moment.] Icydoll says: “There we go. I look cute right? I’m playing– well no, I actually am cute.” [After powdering her face, the woman ensues into a necessary tangent, ogling her gaze towards the camera after momentarily blinking towards her reflection.] Icydoll says: “Y’all, it’s time for another little rant. Even though I’ve been more quiet than before online, I’ve still been keeping up with what’s been going on and everything.” [She clasps her palms against each other, pursuing her words with a deadpan intent, wherein a serious expression emerges across her face.] Icydoll says: “Why are there so many brands today and why are they putting zero effort into what they’re putting on the market? Let me explain. And this is no shade to no brand in particular but if the shoe fits… wear it, baby.” [A noticeable pause emerges in her speech, as the woman’s hand grapples against the tweezers to adjust her right eyelashes prior to proceeding advising the audience.] Icydoll says: “Don’t get me wrong, I love seeing people making moves and trying to be entrepreneurs. I’m all for that and I support hard work. But lately I feel like people have been releasing shit without even thinking of a brand identity or who they’re marketing to, you know?” Icydoll says: “And I know some of y’all gonna be like “Who is she to talk? She’s from the hood” and all that. But let me tell you something baby: you can turn a drug dealer into a stock broker but you can’t turn a stock broker into a drug dealer, mkay?” [Yet another pause in her speech, Icydoll’s lips purse as she raises her eyebrows, indicating a “Don’t you dare play with me!” attitude and sass in her expression. She’d immediately resume her speech after offering the audience the blessing of said reaction.] Icydoll says: “There’s a reason why your brand is selling latex dresses, then the next day random shoes and the next week partnering up with a security firm. That reason is called marketing myopia, look it up. You need to know exactly who you’re developing your products for and try to figure out what they really need. People don’t need another brand who sells white tank tops, people don’t need a new brand who sells lipsticks. It might work at that very moment but I already know it won’t last, because you’re not seeing the bigger picture.” Icydoll says: “And this is some free knowledge from a bitch who started from the bottom and got no outside help, take it or leave it. The reason why these brands come and go is because they have no identity. Slapping a logo on something doesn’t make you a brand. All the partnerships and events you’re sponsoring won’t make you significant, your customers will. So please, to my fellow brand owners, take some more time to figure out what makes YOU unique, how YOU can respond to people’s needs and THEN work on these products. Anyways, I’m really giving away my secrets like… enough rambling let’s finish this look.” [As Icydoll’s tangent halts in its notability, the camera promptly pans to the following segment of the makeup guide.] Shot 7 (Applying Lipstick) [As the seventh segment advances, the audience would be notified about Icydoll promoting the several following products; the Dior™ Contour Lip Pencil in the shade “824 Saint Germain”, Dior™ Rouge Lipstick in shade “505 Saint Germain” and “Premiere,” and lastly, Fenty Beauty™ Gloss Bomb in the shade “Glass slipper”.] Icydoll says: “Okay guys, this is the final step. So first I’m gonna line my lips using the Dior Contour lip pencil in the shade “Saint Germain”. I like to overline my lips a tiny bit to give more definition to the top but we wanna avoid the double lip line so don’t go too crazy.” [Icydoll’s right hand entwines against a Dior™ Contour Lip Pencil in the shade “824 Saint Germain”, strategically lining her lips as her left palm positions against her phone to examine her actions carefully.] Icydoll says: “I usually do a nude lip, I don’t really like how bright colors look on me unless it’s some editorial makeup. So next I’m gonna use the Dior Rouge lipstick in shade “Sensual” all over my lips. This one is the one with the matte finish but I think you can find it with a glossier finish too, I don’t know.” [After overlining her lips, the woman’s hand grapples against Dior™ Rouge Lipstick in the shade “505 Saint Germain”, applying said lipstick application to the centre core of her lips. She’d highlight both products to the audience prior to moving onto the next product line-up.] Icydoll says: “Next I’m gonna use the same lipstick in shade “Premiere” in the center of my lips. My makeup artist taught me this technique and I love it, it gives way more definition to the lips. And it’s lowkey reminiscent of the 90’s which we all love. Then I just blend a little with my finger.” [Icydoll’s finger taps against the fresh coat of lighter lipstick, blending the product seamlessly against the previous coat; forming a gradient transition in the lipstick color.] Icydoll says: “And finally, it ain’t an Icydoll look without some lip gloss. I like using the Fenty Beauty Gloss bomb, the transparent one. Just to add some shimmer.” [Her grasp adjusts to position against Fenty Beauty™ Gloss Bomb in the shade “Glass slipper”, wherein Icydoll embodies an authentic hoochie mama style, puckering her lips against each other after the application process. Icydoll momentarily examines her icy pearly set of veneers to ensure her teeth remains stainless before directing a cheeky smile to the audience.] [Icydoll’s veneers reflect an innate shine, prompting the camera to transition into the concluding segment of the woman’s makeup guide.] Shot 8 (Final Look) [With a gleaming reflection bedazzling from Icydoll’s veneers, the screen flares a photography-esque effect during the woman’s posing. Stylistically posing with an expertise, Icydoll’s head motions to display to the audience the final makeup routine product. Unquestionably, Ms. Icydoll is amidst the allure and is in the process of feeling herself, disregarding the audience’s presence momentarily.] Icydoll says: “Aaaand this is the final look y’all.” [Momentarily pausing, the woman’s hand positions against the MAC Cosmetics™ Prep+ Prime Fix+ mist bottle, spritzing and dousing her face with the product excessively. She’d display the product to the camera in a generic influencer-esque manner prior to prompting the bottle against the bathroom counter yet again.] Icydoll says: “Actually, this is the final look. Thank you so much for watching, I had so much fun. Thank you Diversify for including me in this. Love y’all, mwah!” [Straightening her stature forth, Icydoll blows a singular kiss in the camera’s direction. She’d present a hypnotizing smile in the aftermath of the kiss, wiggling her fingers to signal an appropriate send-off to the audience. Afterwards, Diversify’s logo displays across the screen in the aftermath of the woman finalizing her makeup routine.] Leave a review for our magazine: Username: Rating (1-5 stars): Comment:
