YOU could be the next face of Root.
Welcome to the 2021 Root Model Search! The Root Model Search has been a constant since the very beginning as we set out to find fresh new faces to represent our company. While the core of the Model Search will always stay constant, this year we’re looking to switch things up a bit with fresh ideas (& a huge prize package).

No matter your age, style or skill level, all are welcome to apply! We are looking for content creators who not only produce incredible content, but also bring fresh, exciting ideas to the team & love connecting with our nontoxic beauty community.
