Each year sees the Australian Cosmopolitan team select the very best beauty products across multiple categories for their annual Beauty Awards issue. This year saw winning products chosen across eight categories.
“This year we wanted the Cosmo Beauty Awards to be really practical, but also a lot of fun. We thought a lot about how we use our beauty products and why we love them,” says Cosmopolitan beauty and lifestyle director Alexis Teasdale.
“[We] then came up with categories like ‘Empties’ for those [products] we use to the very last drop. There are also awards for ‘Smellies’ which, of course, have incredible scents. Plus Long-Wear, Under $20, Iconic Nail shades and importantly, the best products for oily, dry and combination skin.”
