The competition heats up as the nine remaining make-up artists are booked to create looks for a beauty campaign for one of the world's leading beauty retailers, Sephora. Their ‘Express All of You’ campaign aims to make the British public feel empowered, and the MUAs have to work on real customers, aiming to draw out their personalities through the make-up. \n\nUnder the watchful eye of brand director Arieta Mujay and world-famous celebrity MUA Patrick Ta, the artists have to impress in order for their looks to be featured in the campaign - the one who really shines will work on a further two looks. Tensions rise as the MUAs juggle time constraints, fierce competition and intense pressure to deliver the perfect campaign, keeping both the client and the customer in the chair happy - and there’s one MUA who they are all out to beat. \n\nThe next day at Glow Up Studios, the make-up artists face the creative brief based on their hometown. And who better to surprise them than Selling Sunset's Chelsea Lazkani?\n\nExcitement mounts as the artists prepare to show off their skills, from the sand sculptures of Weston-super-Mare to the salt mines of Winsford. Each artist brings their unique perspective and talent to the creative brief, including forcing perspective through shading and creating a stained-glass window, each MUA incorporates elements of their life and personal experiences into their creations.\n\nAs the clock ticks down, the artists must work quickly and efficiently to bring their visions to life, facing unexpected obstacles and moments of doubt along the way. But with the added pressure of impressing Chelsea and Patrick, they push themselves to their limits in pursuit of avoiding the face-off elimination. \n\nWho will rise to the challenge and create a look that truly captures the essence of their hometown?
