Show Title: Make-Up

Tagline: “Transform. Express. Empower.”


Concept Overview

Make-Up is a prime-time beauty and fashion show that dives into the world of cosmetics, artistry, and self-expression. The show celebrates make-up as both a craft and a cultural force — teaching techniques, highlighting industry trends, and exploring how make-up empowers individuals to tell their story.

It blends tutorials, celebrity features, competitions, and storytelling into a visually stunning, fast-paced program.

Core Segments

1. Runway to Real Life

Breaking down iconic runway looks and translating them into everyday wearable versions. One model shows the high-fashion original, another shows the simplified version.


2. Inside the Kit

Each week, a celebrity or make-up artist reveals the products they cannot live without. This segment doubles as a subtle product showcase (potential sponsorship).


3. The Transformation Chair

An ordinary viewer or guest sits down to get a full transformation by the pro host. Themes can vary: bridal glam, natural glow, editorial avant-garde, etc. Their emotional reaction becomes the highlight.


4. Face-Off Challenge

Two rising make-up artists compete in a timed challenge (“Smokey Eye in 10 Minutes,” “Red Carpet Glam,” “Fantasy Festival Looks”). Judges: the host, guest celebrity, and live audience voting (via app).


5. Skin Deep

The dermatologist explains the science of skincare as the foundation for great make-up — tackling myths, routines, and skin-type-specific prep.


6. Global Glam

Spotlight on make-up rituals and cultural trends worldwide: kohl in the Middle East, geisha-inspired beauty in Japan, African tribal paint influences, Latin American glam culture, etc.


7. Make-Up Masterclass

Step-by-step tutorials with pro tips: blending foundation, contour hacks, eyeliner tricks, lip shaping, brow sculpting. Designed to be both aspirational and practical.


8. Final Look: Beauty of the Week

Each episode ends with a Beauty of the Week reveal — a stunning, jaw-dropping make-up look that becomes the episode’s signature takeaway.
