The BeautyMatter Awards spotlight a group of players who often work behind the scenes, often with little recognition, but are crucial to the success of beauty and wellness brands. We've carved out a space merging innovation, impact, and design that creates a place to highlight everyone involved in the beauty ecosystem, raising the bar and defining the future of beauty.
Service providers and suppliers play an integral role in bringing brands, products, and services to life for consumers. From the smallest packaging element to the logistics partner responsible for shipping your products, they provide the necessary materials and services that set the wheels of the supply chain in motion.
"We believe everyone should have a fair shake at winning industry awards. The BeautyMatter Awards are determined purely on the merit of the entry and judged on relevancy, impact, and innovation," said BeautyMatter founder and CEO Kelly Kovack. "At BeautyMatter, it's not a popularity contest, and you cannot buy your way to a win. BeautyMatter Awards are earned."
Now in its fourth year, the BeautyMatter Awards have become a benchmark for excellence and the ultimate accolade for businesses operating in beauty everywhere. Your next big achievement starts here.
