The Awards Process - Clear, Fair & Transparent
We believe in transparency, fairness, and celebrating excellence at every stage
Enter Your Categories
You self-nominate by selecting the category (or categories) that best reflect your business, expertise, and achievements. With over 30 categories available, there's something for every beauty, skincare, and aesthetics professional.
Once your entry is submitted, it is reviewed through our 100% blind judging process. All identifying information is removed so judges assess your submission purely on merit, focusing on quality, results, professionalism, and impact. Entries are reviewed by respected industry experts and leaders with years (and often decades) of experience.
Shortlisting & Finalist Announcement
Following the judging process, a maximum of 25 finalists per category are shortlisted. This ensures the finals remain meaningful, competitive, and genuinely representative of excellence within the industry.
If shortlisted, you'll receive:
- A prestigious finalist certificate
- A social media post announcing you as a Finalist
- FREE Press Release pack to help get you into national media
- FREE business boosting workshops throughout the year
- The option to purchase an exclusive finalist trophy
- Official recognition as a finalist of The Beauty & Skincare Awards UK
From this stage onward, we actively support and promote our finalists. We proudly reshare finalist posts, celebrate press coverage, highlight milestones, and champion your achievements across our social media platforms, helping you maximise visibility and credibility throughout the awards journey.
You'll receive an update on your entry within six weeks of submission, so you're always kept informed.
Finalist Promotion, Support & The Grand Final
All finalists gain free access to our 100% online awards ceremony, where we reveal the Top 10 finalists in each category and announce the 1st Place Winners.

We continue to support and celebrate finalists right through to the Grand Final and beyond - resharing posts, celebrating press features, and showcasing your success every step of the way.
