World-renowned MUA MMMMitchell is back in the Creative Brief hot seat! The king of bold glam and cosmetic brand founder is ready to judge the MUAs to deliver flawless artistry in Dream Collab looks.\n\nIt’s bursting with celebs this week as Millie Bobby Brown’s MUA Buster Knight joins to judge the MUA's work on celebs Amber Davies, Danny Beard, Zeze Milz and Henrie Kwushue, who are all attending the WhatsOnStage Awards. \n\nFor the first time, the MUAs will be working on high-profile celebs, all needing long-lasting perfection under the bright lights of paparazzi cameras for photos that will last a lifetime online. With high stakes and even higher expectations, the MUAs will need to work quickly to make sure their celebrity is on time for their allotted red carpet time slot. The MUAs will be under the watchful eye of guest judge Buster Knight, who will step in to finish the celebrities' looks if any fall short.\n\nOne MUA seems to nail their client’s look in the chair, but will their finished look hold up under the intensity of flash photography? Another MUA struggles to rise to the challenge of their client’s specific brief. \n\nOnce back at Glow Up Studios, the judges review photographs from the red carpet and see whose look went the distance and whose lands them in hot water for the last Creative Brief. For a place in the final, the MUAs will create looks based on their dream collaboration.\n\nOne MUA pays tribute to a pop icon, another aims to blend their make-up artistry with a collab that draws on cultural identity, while one mixes science with beauty to create a unique design.\n\nThen two MUAs go head-to-head in the Face-Off Elimination, with both fighting for a spot in the final. The MUAs must create a balanced and symmetrical halo eye, but that’s not all... they must complement this with an outlined smoked black lip and complete both elements in under 20 minutes. But with only one place left for the final, who will prove victorious?
