Glow Up season 4 launch, guest judges and contestants

Season four of the hit make-up show Glow Up: Britain's Next Make-Up Star is returning to BBC Three. The series will see 10 new aspiring make-up artists go head-to-head to impress resident judges Val Garland and Dominic Skinner and an array of guest judges and experts.

This year's talented contestants will have their creativity skills put to the test as they take on varied high-stakes professional assignments, including television, theatre, fashion, front covers, and online beauty campaigns.

Explaining how the show works, the BBC said: "At the Glow Up Studio their talents are pushed to the limit with creative make-up transformations and each week the two MUAs who least impress series judges, Val Garland and Dominic Skinner, go head-to-head in a Face Off elimination, putting their technical skills under the spotlight. After 8 weeks, the last MUA standing is crowned Britain's Next Make-up Star, winning a contract assisting some of the world’s top make-up artists."
