Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-Up Star (often shortened to Glow Up) is a British reality television competition to find new makeup artists. Hosted by Stacey Dooley, the first episode premiered on BBC Three on 6 March 2019. The contestants take part in weekly challenges to progess through the competition, which are judged by industry professionals Dominic Skinner and Val Garland, as well as weekly guest stars. After the conclusion of the first series, Glow Up was renewed for a second series, which premiered on 14 May 2020.

History

In January 2019, it was announced that English television personality Stacey Dooley would present Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-Up Star.[1] On the series, Dooley commented: "I'm delighted to be involved with Glow Up. The make-up artists are so impressive and talented… and Val and Dominic were a scream to work with."[2] Industry professionals Dominic Skinner and Val Garland were also announced as judges for the series.[3] Dooley was criticised for her decision to partake in the programme, with her being accused of "selling out" and "ditching her investigative journalism roots".[4] Dooley responded to the claims, saying: "It's painfully predictable: there are always people who are desperate to put you in your one camp and never let you leave. The idea that you could be interested in the Yazidi community and also in lipstick blows people's minds. It's a really short-sighted Stone Age attitude; it's boring, actually. I've earned my stripes; I don't need to prove myself to anyone.[5] She added that: "We should celebrate make-up. It's a lucrative industry; a massive employer."[6]

After its premiere, Jazmin Kapotsha of Refinery29 described the programme as a mixture of America's Next Top Model, The Great British Bake Off and YouTube beauty tutorials.[7] She added that the "craft is undeniably incredible" and that "it came as a huge surprise".[7] In July 2019, Glow Up was renewed for a second series.[8][9] Dooley commented: "We had so much fun filming the last series of Glow Up. I was blown away by the talent and creativity last time and it was a pleasure to be part of the journey. I can't wait to get to know the new MUAs!"[10] Garland said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to be back for the second series. Glow Up is a life changing experience and I wish each and every one of the hopefuls the very best of luck", with Skinner adding: "The new artists coming through those doors will really have to bring it, as last year's MUAs blew me away with their talent and set the bar so high."[10] The second series premiered on BBC Three on 14 May 2020.[11][12]
