Glow Up starts tomorrow on iplayer

[Cocolapew]

I really enjoyed the last series hopefully this will be as good.

[Dontjudgeme101]

I was really pleased that Ophelia won. She deserved it.

[PinkDaydreams]

I really agree with @jay55! I think this series has been very arty but it would be good to see actual make up, like @jay55 has suggested.

[Toddlerteaplease]

Just caught up. I really wanted Eve to win, she seemed lovely. Not quite sure about the fish, but it was well done. Not sure about Ophelia.

[jay55]

I'd love the challenges to include something like
wedding makeup for someone with problem skin. Or glam for someone with real wrinkles.
Or your box of tricks has been impounded by customs and you only have a few random items to do a full face, like a masterchef mystery box.

[Cocolapew]

🙂
I wish for the final they had to do just actual make up, rather than creative. If the prize is helping make up artists I don't think there's going to be too many looking for eyeballs coming out of foreheads.
Off to look at Instagram now, I was staying away until I'd seen the final.
They are advertising for series 3 contestants so see you all next time

Sorry for derailing coca As you were.....

[ppeatfruit]

I'm lucky in Fr. our area is fine, masks are being worn by most. We do have to remember that it doesn't kill everybody who gets it by any means. Staying healthy is a great help too. ( I possibly got it mildly and wasn't even contagious) I'll know next week when I'm tested, because I can't wait to get over to stay with mum who's 92 next week!

It must be tricky to be responsible for parishioners who are difficult or impossible, to visit Keep well, sniff some mint ess. oil for a lift it's great!

[PinkDaydreams]

I also felt really disappointed with the final. Oh well, now to find something else similar to watch!

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

Ah!

T' North!

We all know each other up here .

No - I've been doing funerals and writing reflections for the parish magazine and online services and stuff like that. Have to admit have been feeling very, very low - especially when the Corona figures have come in today - the jump is HUGE! Partly because they've changed the way the count them, but it shows how complacent we're in danger of becoming - our numbers were high, but didn't seem to have increased much for a week (I had been very suspicious of this . . . ).

Yesterday's figures are finally available. The overall cases (nationally) are down by 30,000, but locally every area has increased by 50% and over.

I could weep. Quite literally, I could weep.

I need escapist stuff. I'm going to catch up on the MC today if I get the chance and rejoin the threads.

[ppeatfruit]

Oh thank goodness for that Schady (waves back) I was thinking the worst!!!!! (I half heard on the radio that a vicar\dean or someone churchy 'in the north" had KTB early on in the lockdown).

Welcome back!!!!

I don't reckon that this programme is up my street!!

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

I was disappointed in the final, too - but I wasn't surprised at the winner - I think the "fish" really was a let down.

Having said that, while it is a wonderful accolade, I wouldn't be surprised if both of the others get jobs in the industry. And maybe with less pressure on them to "perform'.

[jay55]

Agree the final was a let down. No point in going from 3 to 2. Was probably the right winner but nothing in the final was wow for me.

And wtf with those lower lashes

[whitershadeofpale]

No spoilers but having watched the final I think probably the best person one. Generally it was really disappointing though, boring first and third challenges and didn’t feel like a final at all.

[527040minutes]

A few of her water shoot are on there too, one on her's, one on rankin's. There's some of her glitter shoot on the hunger magazine Instagram too spread around a few grid posts so looks like it was well received :)

[527040minutes]

Eve's second Rankin photos are on her insta. They're lovely :) it's a glitter shoot on her grid.

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

Hi ppeat



Yes! is me.

I had problems with the telly and couldn't follow my favourites eg masterchef etc. It wasn't the same using the laptop and I was missing the cut and thrust of the intellectual debate (who ha the most impressive beard, tattoos etc)

I've been following sewing bee (usually a day behind) and glow up, and sticking my nose above the parapet every now and then - not as much as before though.

I have missed everybody though - you, and four and puffling and all of the gang. I couldn't find anyone when I'd been off for a while.

I think celebrity MC is starting up soon?

[ppeatfruit]

Sorry to derail the thread ( I have no idea what you're all talking about ) BUT is it you Schady? You were on the strictly threads? You haven't been on MN for quite sometime?

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

I would LOVE it to be Eve! But probably Ophelia.

James has flashes of brilliance but it inconsistent.

Ophelia is very rarely poor - though I wasn't particularly impresses with "Air" myself She's pretty much a one-trick pony, and doesn't seem to have developed at all.

Eve is pretty consistent but sometimes "over-eggs the pudding"- though she's reining herself in. I think she's the one who has progressed the most. And she isn't letting herself get flustered the way she used to - she's learning how good she can be if she just steps back emotionally.

EVE.. . . but

I think it depends very much on the challenges.

[PinkDaydreams]

Looking forward to tonight’s episode, although I won’t get to watch it till tomorrow.
Who does everyone think will win?!

[Cocolapew]

I've only just caught up, I'm another fan of Eve.
I wish they all would push themselves out of their comfort zone, is all a bit samey in the creative bit, at least Eve tried to get away from the'facepainting'.
Ophelia is very talented but also has the added ability of being artistic, poor Eve's drawings are like mine .
Belinda from last year has just had a baby .

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

I'm with you on that google.

I like Eve the best, too.

[googledontknow]

I think Eve deserves to win, she's improved the most, has a lovely engaged manner in the tasks and with the models.
I also think she would be the one who would love an actual job as a MUA.

I think James & Ophilla are really lovely too, and obviously very talented, but if I was in a make-up chair, I'd want it to be Eve doing my make-up.

[BedknobsNoBroomsticks]

Hannah is self taught. I think she is good but might benefit from a few classes just to learn about some of the technical stuff such as what base colour to use. I do wish that she would sort her eyebrows out. I am not a fan of the brushed up look.

[SchadenfreudePersonified]

A simple kissing of the hem of her garment would have been sufficient, Lady

[LadyOfTheCanyon]

Noooooooooo! I get super embarrassed when I see people from TV. Also, although she seems very sweet I think she was allowed to stay on beyond the point she should have gone, so I wouldn't have wanted to say that!
