2. In episode 2, Cicilia refused her makeover and quit the competition.
3. In episode 4, the contestants were called forward in pairs and told their verdict.
4. During the live final, each of the judges was allowed to vote for one of the three remaining models. The weight of each individual vote was ten points, with a possible total of 50 points. These totals were then tallied with the percentages of the viewer vote among the remaining three contestants, which counted for half of the overall total. Cecile accumulated the most points at the end of the night, and was crowned the winner.
