A NEW BBC series will follow the lives of a young team behind a Belfast-based cosmetics brand.
Made Up In Belfast, to be shown on BBC Three, invites viewers into the lives of BPerfect Cosmetics' employees as they work in a highly-pressured head office, a warehouse and shops.
The 10-part series, made by Afro-Mic Productions, reveals the work that goes on behind-the-scenes in the beauty industry.
Viewers can watch the cast as they launch new products, race to meet deadlines and find friends and love.
The company's owner Brendan McDowell, from Annalong in Co Down, started the brand in 2013 with just £500.
The series has been commissioned in partnership with BBC Three, BBC Northern Ireland and Northern Ireland Screen.
Past series commissioned by the partnership include The Fast And The Farmer-ish, which has been recommissioned for a second series and Stitch, Please! presented by drag queen Blu Hydrangea.
Fiona Campbell, BBC Three controller said: "Made Up In Belfast is the next brilliant series for BBC Three borne from our incredibly fruitful creative partnership with BBC Northern Ireland and Northern Ireland Screen.
"After tractors and cosplay we’re looking forward to digging into the world of cosmetics and meeting the young team striving for success in the beauty industry."
Eddie Doyle, head of commissioning at BBC Northern Ireland, said: "Our partnership with BBC Three and Northern Ireland Screen has already produced some fantastic local content for audiences around the UK.
"We are delighted to announce Made Up In Belfast as the latest venture with Afro-Mic Productions and this 10 part series showcases a group of young and vibrant people offering a unique insight into their lives in Northern Ireland."
