OWN is expanding its digital lineup this month with two new original series that put women creators front and center, blending beauty, dating, and lifestyle content for online audiences.
The network announced that Glow Up in 5, starring actress and lifestyle creator Zoe Spencer, premieres July 21, followed by Dating Download, hosted by media personality Kendra G, on July 29. Both series will stream exclusively on OWN’s digital platforms.
The shows are part of OWN’s ongoing effort to highlight women who are shaping conversations across social media and digital entertainment.
In Glow Up in 5, Spencer takes on surprise beauty challenges with just five minutes on the clock. Each episode features quick makeup, hair, or skincare transformations designed to help viewers create polished looks in a short amount of time.
Rather than focusing on perfection, the series encourages women to feel confident by making the most of everyday moments with simple beauty tips and fast routines.
Dating Download shifts the focus to modern romance. Hosted by Kendra G, the series follows 10 women as they meet men who match the qualities they say they want in a partner. From entrepreneurs to providers and reformed players, each date tests whether attraction matches expectations.
After every date, participants decide whether to continue pursuing the relationship by choosing “Download” or end it by selecting “Delete.”
OWN says the series explores how people build genuine connections in today’s technology-driven dating world while challenging assumptions about compatibility.
The network said both programs reflect its commitment to creator-led storytelling and content that resonates with women leading conversations in culture, beauty, and relationships.
Glow Up in 5 and Dating Download are produced by Content.23 and Pauline Malcolm-Thornton’s BrandStory Architech.
