At the challenge, one member of each team had to choose a style such as: Street style, Sporty, Office, Rock and Glamour. Only team Hoàng Yến had fewer contestants among three teams, so Hoàng Yến's models would do more than once. Tuyết Như was criticized for her disrespectful attitude by the judges. Xuân Phúc, Như Mỹ and Trung Kiên, Linh Chi added one point for team Minh Hằng and Thanh Hằng. Lệ Nam received the final victory
Three teams had to take part in a video for MAC Cosmetics on a turning table tagged in a sidestep with the camera hung in the air.

Although they were not the worst members of their teams, Xuân Phúc (who volunteered) and Linh Chi (who did not volunteer) went up for elimination. Hoàng Yến then eliminated Xuân Phúc from the competition.

12 contestants had to make a video of a Rohto's "Because The Eyes Are Priceless" poster. Team Hoàng Yến won the challenge for a second time in a row. Minh Hằng nominated Như Mỹ for elimination. However, she immediately left the show's studio after learning that Thanh Hằng discovered Như Mỹ went into the elimination room through a main gate from above. This led to Thanh Hằng nominating Mid, much to Linh Chi's dismay, as she felt Trung Kiên deserved to be nominated rather than Mid. In the elimination room, Hoàng Yến gave Mid a chance to stay by telling him to convince Thanh Hằng to rethink and change her nomination. Since Mid denied to do so, he was automatically eliminated, although Hoàng Yến acknowledged that he had potential. After Mid's elimination, Thanh Hằng warned Trung Kiên that if he did not perform better in the upcoming challenges, he would be sent into the elimination room.
