Six women from Northern Ireland and Scotland are preparing to put their best face forward tonight in a new dating show with a difference.
Pretty Single, a dating show, from the makers of Beauty Queen and Single begins on BBC One Northern Ireland on Monday 25 May at 10.35pm.
The six-part series sees six image-obsessed singletons ditch their make-up to try and find a love connection that’s more than skin deep.
Narrated by Saoirse-Monica Jackson, star of Derry Girls, Pretty Single is a Stellify Media production for BBC One Northern Ireland.
Each week, six girls from Northern Ireland and Scotland – Patricia, Mando, Ali, Sean, Michaela and Pamela – embrace a unique dating experience going on five dates with five different guys, completely make-up free.
The remaining women watch the dates unfold from the comfort of their sofa – providing supportive and humorous commentary throughout.
First up is hairdresser, single-mum and self-confessed romantic, Patricia from Derry who admits she hides her true self behind make-up to boost her confidence.
She says: “It’s putting on a mask in the morning, it’s covering the flaws that you don’t like about yourself.”
Each of the five suitors have been specially matched to Patricia but she can only take one to dinner and hopefully make a lasting love connection.
All the girls are helped prepare for their dates by fashion designer and stylist, Nathan Palmer, who dresses each with a simple black dress bespoke to their individual personalities.
Pretty Single airs on BBC One Northern Ireland tonight, Monday, May 25 at 10.35pm.
