About the Green Beauty Awards
The Green Beauty Awards exist to spotlight the products, people, and brands setting new standards in sustainable beauty. As part of the Global Makeup Awards series, this dedicated category celebrates innovation rooted in ethics—where formulation quality meets environmental responsibility.
Our goal isn’t just to reward what’s popular, but to highlight what’s truly progressive. From packaging that reduces waste to ingredients backed by science and integrity, winning entries reflect the direction the beauty industry is heading—thoughtful, transparent, and accountable.
Each product is judged by an independent panel of experts, including beauty editors, skincare professionals, and sustainability advocates. Their evaluation goes beyond surface-level marketing to focus on what matters: performance, transparency, and impact.
As the conversation around green beauty continues to evolve, these awards aim to guide both consumers and industry insiders toward choices they can trust.

FAQ
Who Decides the Winners of the Global Green Beauty Awards?
The Global Green Beauty Awards are judged by a dedicated panel of independent experts from across the beauty industry. This includes professionals with backgrounds in formulation, beauty journalism, skincare education, and sustainability.
To ensure fairness and objectivity, our panel remains anonymous during the judging process. What we can say is that each judge brings a deep understanding of both product performance and environmental responsibility—two essential pillars of the awards.
Judging is based on more than just first impressions. We look at the quality and efficacy of each product, as well as how well the brand aligns with the green values of the category they’ve entered. This includes factors like ingredient sourcing, packaging choices, ethical manufacturing, and overall environmental impact.
We understand that not every brand—especially smaller or indie ones—has access to third-party certifications. That’s why we don’t require them. Instead, we ask for authenticity. Entrants should clearly demonstrate how their product fits the criteria of the category they’ve selected.
There are no restrictions on launch dates. Products don’t need to be brand-new to qualify, only relevant to the green beauty space and reflective of real innovation or commitment to sustainability.
We request six product samples from each entrant, which allows our judging panel to thoroughly assess each product's quality and performance.
