Facecard: Makeup Showdown
Roblox's viral 3D makeup competition, launched October 2026. Every player in the server gets the same theme, paints it onto a 3D face, then votes every look 1-5 stars. The best-rated facecard takes the crown.

Quick start: launch the game, tap JOIN when the "A ROUND IS ON!" prompt appears, read the theme card carefully, paint your look, press DONE, then rate every other face 1-5 stars. Highest average wins stars, cash and rank progress.
How a round works
Five stages, a few minutes total. The theme is identical for everyone - scoring is about who reads it best.
-
1
Lobby
A short countdown in the pink salon while players gather. Join a round in progress from the prompt, or warm up in Freeplay mode where there's no vote and no clock pressure.
-
2
Theme reveal
Everyone sees the same theme card - sometimes with specific instructions. "Highlight Heaven," for example, asks for glow on the cheekbones, nose and brow bone. Judges score against that brief.
-
3
Paint phase
Brushes, lashes, hair, stamps, rhinestones and layers on a 3D face model. Press DONE when finished (second tap confirms) or let the clock run out.

4
Photoshoot + voting
Each look gets a short photoshoot, then players rate it 1 to 5 stars. Rate everyone - your own score isn't affected by voting honestly.

Results
Winner, top three and full leaderboard. Stars accumulate into a ten-rank ladder that unlocks poses, lash sets and brow stamps.
The paint tools
What each control on the paint screen actually does.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| Brush Size / Strength / Softness | Coverage, pigment per stroke and edge blend. High strength + soft edge is the everyday glam combo. |
| Mirror | Paints both sides of the face at once - on by default. Turn it off for asymmetric looks. |
| Layers | You always paint on the selected layer; hidden layers take no strokes. Stack base, eyes and detail on separate layers so mistakes don't ruin the base. |
| Stamps | Pre-made shapes - liner wings, brow stamps and patterns unlocked through ranks. |
| Lashes / Hair / Rhinestones | Attachment cosmetics that frame the face - often the detail that separates a 4-star from a 5-star look. |
| Camera | Rotate and zoom the 3D face to check your work from the angle voters will see. |
What actually wins votes
The mistake almost every new player makes.
Theme first, pretty second
Voters rate against the shared brief, not general glam. A bold, on-theme face with imperfect blending beats a flawless look that ignores the prompt - the most consistent beginner mistake is painting a generic pretty face.
Read the theme's fine print
Theme cards name specific placements. If it says highlight on cheekbones, nose and brow bone, hitting exactly those spots is the difference between 3 stars and 5.
Commit to a readable look
Ten strangers have seconds to score you. High-contrast, obviously-on-theme reads faster than subtle perfection.
Check it from voter angles
Use the camera before hitting DONE - blending that looks fine head-on can fall apart in the photoshoot angle.
Codes
No confirmed working codes as of October 2026. The redemption path already exists - open SHOP in the lobby (or tap your credit card), press the small code button in the shop header, type the code and hit REDEEM. Codes drop through the game's Discord announcements; sites listing "FACE500" or similar unverified strings are guessing. We'll update when official codes land.
