The premise of the show is great, the world of makeup art is very interesting and cool. The artists on this show are all interesting and I loved how it didnt focus on the drama like every reality show.
However there are still a lot of problems with "Glow Up" The face off challenge is boring and dumb, how should a 5 minute competition of applying lipstick or something as minor as that determine who stays or goes home. This ruins the show as some people make it further than they should have and some dont make it as far as they should have. Also the final of the show didnt even feel like a great finale.
Good concept, well produced, nice mix of contestants and Ms.Dooley as host is charming as always.
The downfall of the show is the bias and self aggrandising attitude of the judges.
Ding-dong...Move on.

First off, I would like to say that I thoroughly dislike the judges. They are pretentious and have no sense of style. I enjoyed the first season, but some of the MUAs were a bit up themselves and I didn't like the drama. Additionally, one girl who was consistently unreliable kept getting put through to the next round.
However, so far I'm really enjoying the second series. The MUAs all seem genuine and are supportive of one another.
If you're wondering about if you should watch this, I'd say give it a go, but it might not be for everyone.
This could be a good show, but the judging is questionable. Not the judges, just the methods. In the first season, an individual who underperformed consistently for several weeks in a row ended up finishing in the top two because of the way the judging is done. It was only the law of averages that earned her that spot, not her performance or ability. The judging was inconsistent and in some cases, it seemed as though the judges were merely"playing favorites". Like I said, the show has potential to be really good if the elimination part was a little more consistent and fine-tuned. For the record, I believe that the absolute right person won without a doubt. He was certainly the most talented MUA, and I sincerely hope he has a long and successful career in the industry.
I really like the show. However, the judges Dominic and Val are rude to the contestants and each other. If I hear " Ding Dong" one more time I think my head will explode.
