Clean Beauty Awards Opens 2025 Entries for Milestone 10th Anniversary Celebration

The Clean Beauty Awards, the premier event recognizing excellence in clean beauty, has opened its call for brand entries for the 2025 awards. This announcement marks a significant milestone as the awards celebrate their 10th anniversary, underscoring a decade of progress in the clean beauty industry. Organized by CertClean, North America's leading certification for safer skincare, the Clean Beauty Awards have played a crucial role in the clean beauty revolution. Over the past decade, these awards have helped consumers make informed choices and recognized brands that prioritize health and sustainability in their products.

What distinguishes the Clean Beauty Awards is its rigorous judging process. Unlike other industry awards that may rely on popularity or a small internal team, the Clean Beauty Awards finalists and winners are determined by an external panel of over 70 clean beauty experts, advocates, and influencers. This approach ensures a legitimate and unbiased evaluation of the products entered. Jenise Lee, CEO of CertClean, emphasized the importance of the awards, stating that their program is dedicated to demonstrating that clean beauty products truly deliver results. By recognizing outstanding products, they enhance the credibility of the entire clean beauty industry and build consumer trust.

The call for entries opened on August 14, 2024, with early bird discounts available until October 1, 2024. The registration fees range from $129 USD to $199 USD per product, depending on the registration period. Brands have until October 31, 2024, to submit their entries. The judging process will take place from November 2024 to February 2025, with winners announced in March 2025. Interested brands can visit https://www.cleanbeautyawards.com for eligibility criteria and submission guidelines.

This year, brands can enter their products in 22 categories, covering a wide range of beauty and personal care products. These categories include lipstick, eye care, mascara, nail care, perfume, body care, hair treatments, face creams, and more. The comprehensive list of categories reflects the diverse and growing clean beauty market. The Clean Beauty Awards have seen significant growth since their establishment in 2015. The 9th annual awards received more than 170 entries from Canada, the US, Europe, and throughout the Asia Pacific, demonstrating the global reach and importance of clean beauty.

As the clean beauty industry continues to expand, events like the Clean Beauty Awards play a crucial role in setting standards and recognizing excellence. By highlighting products that are both effective and free from potentially harmful ingredients, these awards contribute to the overall advancement of the beauty industry towards safer and more sustainable practices. The 10th anniversary of the Clean Beauty Awards not only celebrates a decade of progress but also looks forward to shaping the future of clean beauty. As consumers become increasingly conscious of the ingredients in their personal care products, initiatives like these awards help guide them towards safer choices while encouraging brands to innovate and improve their formulations.
