Glow Up Season 5: See premiere date on Netflix and more

The reality competition series, Glow Up: Britain’s Next Make-Up Star, is set to debut its fifth season on Netflix in September 2023, following its earlier airing on the BBC. The show aims to discover skilled makeup artists.

Since 2019, Netflix has been the exclusive global streaming platform for Glow Up, except in the United Kingdom. Each year, new seasons become available on Netflix a few months after they air on BBC Three in the UK. This pattern continues in 2023 with season 5.

Glow Up Season 5 will officially land on Netflix on September 12, 2023. The season comprises eight episodes, which were broadcasted from May 2 to June 21. Leomie Anderson takes over as the host from Maya Jama, while Val Garland and Dominic Skinner continue as judges.


Notably, the new season features a special Netflix crossover in its first episode. Contestants are tasked with creating makeup looks inspired by characters from the period drama series, Bridgerton.

The release schedule for Glow Up Season 5 on Netflix UK remains uncertain. In January 2023, Season 4 briefly appeared on Netflix UK before being removed at the end of the month. The future availability of Season 5 on Netflix UK is yet to be determined, and until then, the newer seasons can be exclusively accessed via BBC iPlayer.
