TV SHOW TO WATCH TONIGHT: Face Off Season Premiere!

By Delaina Dixon | August 21, 2012 | Entertainment

TV DivaGal loves a makeover series, even if the show’s contestants are transforming others into intriguing and sometimes hideous creatures. So goes Face Off‘s reality competition, where aspiring special effects make-up artists show off their superior skills in creating the bizarre and beautiful.

In their first full-fledged season three challenge, the contestant must create a new character for a major sci-fi franchise that’s spanned decades. It’s really interesting to watch the contestants build molds to cover their models, paint them and create costuming for a true transformation.

Like any good reality competition, this season is full of dra-mah, and as expected, it comes from the one character who’s work is a little questionable. It feels a little out of place on this series, where you would expect everyone to be relatively decent at their craft, so there would be no need to lash out due to lack of skills.

TV DivaGal’s got her eye on C.C. Childs, who is also a beauty make-up artist. Rarely do you see a chocolate-hued sister in such a male-dominated business. We’re rooting for her to go far.

Face Off, season three premiere, airs Tuesday, Aug. 21 at 9 p.m. on Syfy.
