British supermodel Leomie Anderson got announced as the new host of “Glow Up: Britain’s Next Make-Up Star” when it returns for a fifth season later this year.
Glow Up is an original and fresh competitive popular documentary format that sees ten amateur make-up artists battle to be crowned Britain’s Next Make-Up Star.
Each episode follows the contestants diving into the many varied worlds a make-up artist’s work will take them. Series five is bigger than ever as the cast finds themselves working on a set of award-winning TV dramas, Bridgerton, creating prosthetic looks for TV sitcom Ghosts, and working on a huge beauty campaign alongside many other exciting assignments yet to be announced.
On day two, the contestants return to Glow Up Studios where they demonstrate skill, artistry, and imagination to create extraordinary make-up transformations in a Creative Brief. These looks are then judged and the two that least impress go head-to-head in a Face Off Elimination and one goes home.
Season five is once again presided over by resident judges; Val Garland and Dominic Skinner, with decades of experience their frank feedback keeps the contributors on their toes whilst their passion, quick wit, and emotion help to define the series and add humor.
Leomie Anderson says: “I am so excited to be joining Glow Up as the host as it’s such an incredible show! I have always been a huge fan and admire all the MUAs’ work who have been in there previously so to see it in real life is amazing! I can’t wait to work alongside the fabulous Val and Dom in a completely new territory too outside of modeling and get truly stuck in!”
Glow Up leans on the host to add a layer of fun, passion, and energy whilst keeping the tone warm and uplifting.
Melissa Brown, Wall to Wall Executive Producer: “We are over the moon to have Leomie Anderson join Glow Up. Now in our fifth series, we are set to return bigger and better than ever, and it is an absolute joy to have Leomie now at the helm. I’m sure she will be a hit with viewers as much as she is with us.”
Fiona Campbell, Controller, BBC Three says: “I am thrilled that Leomie Anderson will be taking the reins as the new host of Glow Up. With her flair for modeling and fashion, I can’t wait to see her expertise in action! I also would like to thank our previous host the magnificent Maya Jama, we will miss her of course but she will always be a part of the Glow Up family.”
