Best Eye Product

The winner: NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer

“The NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer is a cult-classic for a reason and a much loved staple in my own make-up bag. It brightens my undereyes and covers imperfections/breakouts without feeling cakey or creasing meaning I find myself reaching for it every day, regardless of what kind of ‘look’ the day calls for. It literally goes wherever I go!”

Grace, Account Manager - Beauty

Best Face & Base Product

The winner: Charlotte Tilbury, Hollywood Flawless Filter

“I've been obsessed with this cult-fave for years—probably even before it became a beauty staple! It delivers that flawless, lit-from-within glow when you layer it under foundation, but it’s just as dreamy on its own for those effortless no-makeup days. It’s like your skin, but better. And trust me, it’s an absolute must-have for any summer beach getaway—it pairs perfectly with a sun-kissed tan. ✨”

Eden, Creative Lead

Most-Loved Lip Product

The winner: Clarins Lip Oil

“I love the Clarins lip oil because it's a cult classic that delivers on every front. The first of its kind formula is lightweight and non-greasy, making it perfect for comfortable, all-day wear. With a range of colours to suit every season, it’s a super versatile product, whether I want a subtle tint or a bolder look. Plus, the large doe foot applicator makes it so easy to apply on the go, even without a mirror—just swipe and you're good to go!”

Rhianna, Account Executive - Beauty

Must-Have Haircare

Winner: Dyson Air Wrap

“The Dyson Airwrap has transformed my routine. I've always been pretty unskilled when it comes to my hair (I've never been able to master the french plait) but the Airwrap means even I can recreate a salon worthy blow dry or cute curls from home.”

Jessica, Global Category Lead - Beauty

Most-Loved Skincare

Winner: CeraVe Smoothing cleanser with Salicylic Acid

It’s the ultimate cleanser that removes oil, dirt and makeup while gently exfoliating the skin. The formula is super hydrating and contains ceramides and hyaluronic acid.

Winner: La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume

This multi-purpose balm is perfect for soothing sensitive, irritated skin with its ultra-nourishing, non-greasy texture that repairs the skin.

Fragrance Favourite

Winner: Lookfantastic Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Parfum

“Yves Saint Laurent Libre has a real personal soft spot in my scent repertoire for sentimentality alone. A scent discovered through my Mum and often lovingly ‘borrowed’ by me, it’s a real crowd-pleaser if you’re looking for a compliment. Bonus points because it lasts too! I fully intend to ‘borrow’ it for a wedding this weekend and whether it makes its way safely back to its rightful owner or stays with me is something we’ll find out in time.”

Grace, Account Manager - Beauty

Sexual Wellness Award

Winner: Lookfantastic So Divine Pash Ribbed Vibrator Pink

This 10-function vibrator is water-resistant and made from premium silicone.

Best Breakthrough Product

Winner: GHD Duet 2-in-1 Hot Air Styler

The Hot Air Styler has been designed to dry and style hair simultaneously with Air-fusion™ technology to minimise heat damage, providing professional results.

Best Beauty E-Retailer

Winner: Sephora

“Sephora is my ultimate beauty destination, whether I'm grabbing essentials like my beloved CLOMANA BEAUTY Marshmallow Sponge, restocking The Ordinary's Retinol and Caffeine serum, or indulging in some KERASTASE haircare. Their diverse range caters to every need, but it's The Sephora Collection that is their hidden gem, offering fantastic quality at student-friendly prices. Their face masks are amazing, and the All Over Mask set for £26 is an absolute steal! Sephora isn't just a store; it's a beauty lover's haven, and I can't imagine my routine without it.”

Laura, Business Development Director - Beauty and Fashion
