The next day, the girls went to a military camp to compete an obstacle course. Some girls struggled in obstacle training while Yvette suffers a scar in her leg. Asha won the obstacle course challenge and she chose 4 friends to join her (Nina, Samantha, Sarah and Sophia) on a shopping spree and to get a cocktail at The Waldorf Hilton Hotel London. Immediately Lianna feels like an outsider, not getting along with the other girls. During the deliberation, Sarah and Tamar were praised for their photos and especially for their runway walks.

The following day after the photo shoot, they got their makeovers and there were inevitable tears. Sophia realised that her hair wasn't Strawberry Blonde; Tamar was shocked when her hair was dyed brown. Lianna said that Sophia didn't like her cut or colour at all and that she felt like an old woman. Sophia tried to convince Lisa that she really liked it and that she was pleased, despite being in tears.
During the judging panel, Most of the girls excelled, with good photos. Samantha improved her walk but not her photo shoot. Nina's photo wasn't sensual enough and was too aggressive. Lianna also looked bad and bland, with no expression in her eyes during the photo shoot.
