Tonight was Heidi N Closet's night to win. Last week, after she had to lipsync for her life, Heidi bounced back with a win tonight on 'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12. Though the drag queen won the challenge this week, fans on Twitter are roasting Heidi for her poor makeup skills. 

'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12 returned on Friday night for an all-new episode. While it was a sad night to see frontrunner Jan Sport get eliminated, it was also a time to rejoice as Heidi N Closet won her first challenge of the season. She has been in the bottom before, and just last week she had to lipsync for her life against Brita, who ended up getting eliminated. 

Brita is known for her humor, but tonight she took it to a whole new level during the maxi challenge. For the maxi challenge, the drag queens had to create their own advertisement for a drag queen lifestyle brand named 'Droop'. While there were a few contestants like Jaida Essence Hall and Crystal Methyd who stood out with their advertisements, the one that impressed judges the most was Heidi N Closet. 

Even during the runway challenge, that was themed, 'Black Wedding', Heidi managed to impress the judges and guest judge Chaka Khan. She ended up winning the challenge this week. Though fans are glad for her winning this challenge, they are roasting the drag queen for her poor makeup skills that haven't improved. 

"Heidi’s runway look is lovely, I just still can’t with her make up. Looks almost grey in places #DragRace," a fan wrote. While another added, "Gal. Heidi’s make up.. at what point is it flogging a dead horse? #DragRace." 

"Heidi make up still giving me ghost #DragRace," a fan shared. Adding to that another said, "Heidi’s makeup it’s like it gets worse each episode. I was really hoping to see an improvement, but I’m glad they’re seeing past the makeup #DragRace."

"Someone please explain to me why Heidi insists on white-washing her face directly in the middle from week to week? I fully believe her makeup could be better if she fixed that. #DragRace," a fan said. Another added, "Love Heidi but HOW TF have they not clocked this girls makeup yet??? Does she spray paint her hairline on??? B*tch im- #DragRace." 

"Heidi Closet makeup is not right, I give up. She could be fierce with a make over. Too much highlights #DragRace," a fan wrote. 

'RuPaul's Drag Race' Season 12 airs every Friday night only on VH1. Check your local listings for more information.
