Awards open for 'free from' skincare brands


Entry opens today (16th January) for the Free From Skincare Awards 2023, which celebrate cosmetic products across Europe that are ‘free from' some of the ingredients that may cause allergy and sensitivity.

There are 16 categories including Hair Care, Men's Grooming, Face Care and Problem Skin, which recognise products created by those passionate about ‘free from' formulations, ranging from solo entrepreneurs to multi-national brands. 

In addition to product categories, special awards will be present for Best Brand, for Free From Achievement, for Best Labelling, and for Digital Presence, new for 2023. The deadline for entries is Monday 6th March.

Commenting on the launch of this year's Free From Skincare Awards, Alex Gazzola, Awards' Director and co-founder, says: 

“Our Awards are open to brands large and small. We receive entries from large multi-national companies and from small one-woman soap-makers operating from their garden sheds. We pride ourselves on attracting a diverse entry field, with something for everyone, no matter which ingredients they avoid.”

All entries go through a rigorous judging and testing process, with brands receiving detailed feedback.

Finalists will be announced in May, with winners revealed in June 2023.
