#InstaWarpaint – Rankin
Theme – Festival Looks
We know that not everyone can make it down to London for our Warpaint Championships, which is why we created our brand new photographic category #InstaWarpaint. To judge our entries, we have none other than the critically acclaimed photographer, Rankin. The winner will receive one of Rankin’s photography books, a Warpaint trophy and a certificate, and the winning image will be used in Warpaint Magazine. As this isn’t occurring at Professional Beauty there are some slightly different rules – please do check our competition pack (here). The closing date is Friday 12th Feb, don’t forget!
See you in London!
