Marie Claire is committed to sustainability and championing brands that are working towards a greener future. For the Skin Awards, we will be recycling and reusing packaging sent to us by brands entering products and using Royal Mail services over individual couriers wherever possible when sending judging packs. We also have categories dedicated to sustainability and will be announcing the winners with an environmentally friendly virtual event.

Winning brands will be notified by email w/c Monday 7th September. Winners will be celebrated at our virtual awards event in October 2020. The winners are embargoed until after the virtual awards ceremony. Winners will also be announced to the Marie Claire community with exclusive content created by the beauty team, on a dedicated marieclaire.co.uk skin hub and social platforms.
Entries will be judged by the Marie Claire beauty team and a selection of experts from our judging panel, led by Beauty & Style Director Lisa Oxenham. Individuals will be selected from our panel to judge the category best suited to them. Judges will be asked to test the products and provide scores. The highest scoring product will win the category.
In order to minimise waste and as part of our commitment to sustainability we will be re-using packaging that has been sent to the Marie Claire team. Products will be sent via special delivery where possible, to reduce carbon footprint.
