For anyone curious, the main "process" parts in Beauty Game are in the first ~10 chapters. There is a significant 'change' later in the series as well, but there is a lot of other stuff to weed through and they don't focus on it as much / in as interesting of a way in my opinion. There's a new volume coming, though, so whose to say what will happen there.
Kiss X Death alludes to transformation, but as far as I could see (I didn't read it thoroughly, but I scanned ahead) it never follows through on showing anything except a before and after, and a reversion that they allude to doesn't seem to ever happen.
Lookism has a female counterpart to the main character who appears in Chapter 59. Up until then, its all focussed on the male character, with a much wider focus on drama, fights and social intrigue. It gets very dark at times.
