BBC's Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-Up Star is returning for its first one-hour celebrity episode which will see five celebs put their make-up skills to the test in an attempt to be crowned the winner of the Red Nose Day special. Their creativity skills will be judged in a series of challenges working against the clock.
Similar to the usual set-up of the Glow Up episodes, the stars will first be set an assignment working within the beauty industry. Their task will be to create make-up looks suitable for a Red Nose Day runway.
They will work on models selected by model and fashion designer Leomie Anderson, including Drag Race UK’s A’Whora, YouTuber Nella Rose and UK models Kenza, Eva Apio and Leomie herself. For their second challenge, they'll head back to the Glow Up studio where their artistic skills are needed in a personal creative brief, which they will have to create on their own faces, before the top make-up artists are selected to go through to the final face-off.
