Episode 6
The MUAs enter the world of special effects, creating looks from an iconic fight scene in Peaky Blinders. At Glow Up studios, they must impress with their transformations.
This week, the MUAs enter the world of special effects as they are tasked with recreating looks from the smash hit crime drama Peaky Blinders. Working at a prestigious make-up academy with guest judge, Peaky’s BAFTA-winning head make-up designer, Loz Scathio,
Loz wants to test the MUAs' prosthetics skills, so after a demonstration, she gives each MUA an actor, a character brief and their prosthetics. As well as creating a new injury, the MUAs must work from a continuity photo, to add and age a scar that the actor received six months ago. It’s the MUAs' job to create realistic wounds, injuries and blood effects with flawless blending of prosthetic edges.
Whoever impresses receives a one-on-one masterclass from Loz and Oscar award-winning make-up designer Christine Blundell, those that fail to deliver run the risk of starting the Creative Brief in the red Face Off chairs.
While some MUAs bring to life their actors’ injuries by adding fake glass, scar wax, cauliflower ears and tons of blood, others fail to blend and colour match and even mistake the correct side of the face for their continuity scar.
This week’s Creative Brief is based on the seven deadly sins and while some MUAs' gruesome looks bring out sloth, envy and wrath, in very imaginative ways, one MUA's literal interpretation of greed falls flat.
As usual, the two MUAs who impress the least in the Creative Brief head into the Face Off elimination, and in keeping with the TV and film theme, the MUAs are tasked with covering a tattoo.
