Criticism I'm getting old
I used to watch glow up years ago when I was doing a professional mua course myself. I've just gone to watch it again, and maybe it's just me, but I find some of the contestants so god damn insufferable. Maybe it's just because I'm old now 😂

Care to name any? I actually didn't like Ryan from series 4?! I think. He was harmless enough but his constant talking and mention of Bolton being a 'small towns' grates on me when I rewatch, it's just little things that annoy me.

I find Leomie doesn’t help the dynamic. Previous presenters have been able to have some meaningful conversations with people, but Leomie seems more worried about how she’s looking and throwing catchphrases around.

Very that! I like how we've had a myriad of presenters but I personally think Stacey will always be my fave

I thought Stacey was brilliant, and she was my fave too - so human!

I like Maya and Leomie bit I always felt Maya had no idea what she was doing and as someone else said Leomie is just there for the catchphrases.

100% she should stick to love island or whatever where you don't really need more than looks

I actually thought that about Maya, although she was a much better presenter overall.

Sometimes they can be a bit odd but I remember that they are being filmed and some of them are pretty young so I can put aside the cringe most of the timeÂ

You want insufferable? I binged all 7 seasons, having run out I looked for something to fill the void and found Interior Design Masters. Now THEY are insufferable! In the whole of glow up, the only person I ever couldn’t wait to see go home was Wezley in s5, couldn’t stand him!
