BBC Three Glow Up: Glasgow contestant impresses judges and secures place in final

BBC Three's Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-up Star is back for its fourth series and tonight (June 22) will see a Glasgow make up artist compete for a place in the final.

Glaswegian contestant, Yong-Chin, a freelance make-up artist and part time nanny who now lives in London, has taken centre stage.

Hosted by Maya Jama, the show saw 10 aspiring make-up artists put their talents to the test after being handed assignments from TV to theatre, fashion to front covers and on-line beauty campaigns. And now just four remain.

In the seventh episode, Yong-Chin alongside the other contestants were asked to take on another mammoth task.

The penultimate episode's description reads: "The four remaining MUAs hit London Fashion Week, as they are booked to do the make-up for British Fashion Designer Mark Fast, under the watchful and talented eye of key make-up artist of the show, Pablo Rodriguez.

"The Creative Brief sees the MUAs challenged to create a look that represents a moment of rebellion in their lives, something that goes against the norm and breaks the rules.

The Glaswegian impressed the Glow Up judges. (BBC Three Glow Up.)

"The two MUAs judged to have produced the weakest looks go head-to-head in the elimination Face Off, after which one MUA packs up their make-up kit and leaves the competition."

Yong-Chin said she wanted to "prove herself" and be the "next big thing in make-up" saying her parents instilled in her to do "everything 100% to your best effort". She credited her drive as having coming from her parents who made their way over to Glasgow from Korea.

Speeding ahead and the first to get to her second runway model, Yong-Chin impressed the judges with one of them saying the Glasgow-born star "worked fast" and did an "excellent job", labelling her the clear winner.

Thankfully this means she survived the face-off. Up next was another challenging task which she once again nailed, with the BBC Three judges stating her Alexander McQueen-inspired work was "impressive" adding they "loved" the professional look and describing it a "masterpiece".

Getting the all important" ding dong", she was told there wasn't one part of it would that they would criticise. Thanks to her hard work, Yong-Chin secured a place in the final, avoiding the face-off.

In response to what happened in the run up to the final, people took to Twitter to let others know their thoughts with one saying: "I remain obsessed with Yong-chin's work."
