GLOW UP: SERIES 5 DETAILS AND GUEST JUDGES REVEALED

Get ready to witness the ultimate make-up showdown as Glow Up returns for its fifth series, welcoming brand-new host, Supermodel Leomie Anderson.

Each week, 10 of the most talented aspiring make-up artists will be judged on their creative skills and ability to perform under pressure, in incredible Professional Assignments, from TV special FX to the Metaverse. Global beauty campaigns to social media lives plus creating drag looks and also preparing celebs make-up for a huge red carpet event.

At Glow Up Studios these skilled artists will push their creativity and technical abilities to the limit as they strive to impress the judges, the legendary Val Garland and Dominic Skinner. The two who fail to impress, go head-to-head in a Face Off, where they fight to escape elimination.

After 8 weeks, the last make-up artist (MUA) standing wins a contract assisting some of the world’s top make-artists and is crowned Britain’s Next Make-up Star. It's a high-stakes competition that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish! There will also be special guests including Drag Race UK Queens (Cheddar Gorgeous, Black Peppa, Victoria Scone), Dame Dave Lynn, Jack Oliver from Series 4, Zara McDermott, Talia Storm, Daisy Maskell, Yinka Bokinni and Hrush Achemyan.

Alongside Leomie, Val and Dominic, they will be joined by an array of guest judges including:
