2016 Root Model Search • Round 5 Finalists
Meet our incredible Round 5 finalists. For Round 5 all models were asked to create 5 mock Instagram posts & their final 5 minute video, telling us why they would make the very best Root Spokesmodel.
Our Spokesmodel will be a huge representation of the voice of our company for 2016. She will represent Root at events as well as run her own Instagram for the year.
Along with our 2016 Spokesmodel, 10 girls are official Root models. Those girls will also have opportunities to travel with Root & run their own Instagram if they choose too. Our models are dear to our heart & will always be a huge part of Root.

My vote is Tamara S, she produced a awesome video, is a beautiful woman, and truely endorses this product. I’m not one to wear much make up, but she has convinced me to try some.
Jennifer Peters
Katherine Nizzi!! She is an amazing amazing friend and momma! We met at a park with our littles and I think she is one of the most lovely-hearted ladies I’ve ever met ?
Stephanie Ferrari
Katherine N. Has my vote for sure!
Beautiful and talented woman that will be a great spokesmodel for your company.
Heather Guinn
My vote goes to Tamara S. I loved her video and watching how many ways she has used your products. She has convinced me to checkout your line of products!!
Chrissy
Lindsay L. has my vote lovely woman and beautiful.
Tara
Katherine has my vote!

All of these ladies are beautiful in their own ways. As far as who I would like to see running Instagrams next year, I prefer real Root customers rather than casual users or other professionals in the beauty/wellness field. I want to see women who were exclusively or almost exclusively using the products before the contest, otherwise it seems disingenuous. On a side note, I think Hayleigh makes AWESOME videos and I like that she does them herself. Best of luck to all of the ladies and to the judges!
Brenda
Katherine N. Is my fav!
Janny N
Haleigh S has made vote! She’s so beautiful inside and out! She will be a fabulous spokesmodel.
Laura unfreid
Kara Pennington!
Faith beaven
I vote Kara Pennington. I love her youtube videos about root. I love how easy it is to follow her instructions on how to use the product (she is very clear, concise, and to the point and makes it fun) and I think the models are all gorgeous but there is something extra beautiful about Kara with her red hair and gorgeous eyes!
Ashley
I vote for beautiful Kara Pennington!
Janelle
Kara Pennington!
Elaine Rains
I loved Katherine Nizzi’s video and think she would be a great spokesmodel for Root. I also plan to follow up with checking out Root for myself. I am 74 years old and have always loved using makeup. Your products sound just like what I have been looking for. Good luck, Katherine!
Jackie Williams
Kara Pennington is beautiful! I’ve used Clinique for years, but because of her testimonial I’m very intrigued and interested in trying your makeup line. She has made me a believer! I really believe she would be the best spokesperson out of all the candidates and am rooting for her to win! Go Kara!

I am so impressed with the mission behind your products. The candidates all are great, but the woman that stands out for me as the “Root” spokeswoman is Gabrielle Mowry. She is poised and passionate about health and wellness. Good luck with your endeavors.
