RT and Indiepics are delighted to announce the brand new Irish version of the international format has been commissioned for RT 2 and is currently seeking applications for talented make up artists to take part.
Presenter Maura Higgins said: I'm so excited to be the presenter of the first ever Glow Up Ireland. Having watched the last few series of the show in the UK this is such an amazing opportunity and the fact that this is my first presenting job and it's in Ireland is so overwhelming. It's such a pinch me moment to be doing this back in my home country. I actually can't believe it. Obviously we're expecting a very high standard of Irish talent to come forward. Applications are now open so get in touch to be in with a chance of landing one of the top ten coveted spots on the show. Deadline for application is Sunday June 20th so get in touch immediately!
Email glowup@indiepics.ie for more information.
Glow Up: Ireland's Next Make-Up Star is a competitive factual entertainment series where ten of Ireland's best amateur make-up artists (MUAs) are challenged in a range of assignments where they will show off their technical know-how, skill, artistry and imagination. They will be tasked with creating amazing make-up transformations - all taking place in a dedicated studio space Glow Up HQ. One of the ten will be crowned Ireland's Next Make-Up Star and will win a fantastic opportunity to further their professional career.
Anyone interested in applying can email glowup@indiepics.ie for more information.
Further information on Maura Higgins:
Presenter Maura Higgins came to fame through Love Island. With over 3 million followers on Instagram and almost a million on Tik Tok she has fronted her own one-off show Maura Higgins: You're Joking Me! and appeared on the 2019 series of Dancing On Ice, as well as a hosting role on This Morning. She also hosted the red carpet for the National Television Awards in the UK. Other credits include starring as a panellist on ITV2's Celebrity Juice, ITV2's Love Island: Aftersun, BBC2's I'll Get This Christmas Special. Maura is a brand ambassador and also has her own clothing and tanning range.
Further information on the Glow Up series format:
Glow Up is an established format, produced first for BBC Three (also successfully playing on BBC One) by Wall To Wall and now produced in territories like Norway, New Zealand and the Netherlands. It is represented internationally by Warner Bros. The Irish series will be produced by Indiepics, whose credits include The Style Counsellors, How To Be Good With Money, Big Week On The Farm, Ireland On Call, Ear To The Ground, Keeping Ireland Alive and ICA Bootcamp. It will air on RT 2 this Autumn.
Each episode of Glow Up contains two themed challenges a professional brief and a creative brief. The professional brief will involve a guest judge and will be based on the work of professional Make Up Artists for example red carpet; catwalk; editorial; movie prosthetics; drag; theatre; advertising. The creative brief will, as the name suggests, test the creativity and interpretation skills of the MUAs.
The two worst performers in the professional brief find themselves in the Red Chairs in the second challenge, facing extra pressure, extra scrutiny and potentially a time penalty. Depending on how they perform they will either Beat The Seat and survive or lose out and go into the Face Off. Just two MUAs enter the final elimination Face-Off round, going head to head to fight for their place in the competition. The Face Off challenges are based on key skills such as a perfect lip' or a winged liner' and are carried out on an identical set of twin models, enabling the judges to compare like for like. Only one can return to the competition and the Face Off decides which MUA will pack up their kit and leave immediately, based on the judges' decision.
