Clean Beauty Awards Celebrates 10th Anniversary, Opens Call for 2025 Entries

The Clean Beauty Awards, North America's leading recognition program for excellence in clean beauty, has announced the opening of entries for its 2025 competition. This milestone event marks the 10th anniversary of the awards, underscoring a decade of progress in the clean beauty industry.

Organized by CertClean, North America's premier certification for safer skincare, the Clean Beauty Awards have played a crucial role in shaping consumer choices and industry standards since their inception in 2015. The awards aim to demonstrate that clean beauty products can deliver effective results while prioritizing health and sustainability.

What distinguishes the Clean Beauty Awards is its rigorous judging process. Unlike popularity contests or internally judged competitions, the finalists and winners are determined by an external panel of over 70 clean beauty experts, advocates, and influencers. This approach ensures an unbiased and credible evaluation of the entered products.

Jenise Lee, CEO of CertClean, emphasized the significance of the awards: "Our Awards program, now in its 10th year, is dedicated to demonstrating that clean beauty products truly deliver results. By recognizing outstanding products, we enhance the credibility of the entire clean beauty industry and build consumer trust."

The Clean Beauty Awards Badge, awarded to winning products, has become a prestigious symbol in the industry. It not only highlights excellence but also aids brands in expanding their market presence and reaching a wider consumer base. Lee added, "This badge is shaping the future of clean beauty and setting new standards for excellence."

For the 2025 awards, brands can submit entries starting August 14, 2024. The competition offers early bird discounts to encourage participation, with rates starting at $129 USD per product for super early bird registrations from August 14 to September 4. The final deadline for entries is October 31, 2024.

The judging process will take place from November 2024 to February 2025, with winners announced in March 2025. Brands can enter products across 22 diverse categories, ranging from lipstick and mascara to hair treatments and face serums, reflecting the broad spectrum of the clean beauty industry.

The Clean Beauty Awards' growth mirrors the expanding clean beauty market. With consumers increasingly prioritizing health and environmental concerns, the awards serve as a valuable guide for those seeking effective, safe, and sustainable beauty products. For brands, participation offers an opportunity to gain recognition and differentiate themselves in a competitive market.
