Series One of MyFaceMyBody, Beauty Myths Exploded, Stephen’s ‘hand’s on’, charismatic approach saw him parachuting out of an aeroplane, jousting on a horse and salsa dancing among many other things in series one. His ‘action man’ approach earned him the tag “the Steve Irwin of beauty” in the mainstream media.
Series Two, Beauty Secrets Revealed, involved Stephen travelling around the UK to discover the latest treatments and products in over 20 cities nationwide, and often trying them himself. This series was more focussed on Stephen meeting celebrities, and bringing the treatments they represent to a wider audience.

rapport and performances.
