Beauty and personal care brands or their PRs can enter the awards. In order to qualify, products must be commercially available to consumers at the time of entry. Products may be launched in any market worldwide.

We offer two different entry rates, standard (£145+VAT) and premium entry (£195+VAT).

Firstly, premium entry is an option where you can opt into an all inclusive package, prepaying for finalst and winner logos, a longer editorially curated product description in the shortlist issue of Pure Beauty magazine and being added to our priority mailing list.

To be eligible, products must be commercially available to consumers at the time of entry. Products may be launched in any market worldwide.

Brands submit their latest beauty products for the Pure Beauty editorial team to test and review.

Next, they will then shortlist products they believe have the potential to be winners.

From this finalist list, winners are determined in two ways:

Judges’ Choice: Finalists are evaluated by an independent panel of leading beauty industry experts, who select the Judges’ winners in each category.

Readers’ Vote: At the same time, finalists are opened to a public vote, allowing readers and consumers to select the Readers’ winner in each category.

This dual approach ensures the Pure Beauty Awards recognises excellence through both expert industry insight and real consumer opinion, celebrating products that resonate with professionals and audiences alike.

The awards list is refreshed every year, 2026 has 21 awards to enter into. You can find the full list of categories and descriptions on the ‘Categories’ tab.

If you require any clarity on which award to enter, please email the team: purebeauty@hpcimedia.com.
