BACKGROUND

The Her World Beauty Awards event, which began in 2001, celebrates its 10th year. The annual awards aims to acknowledge the companies that are instrumental in influencing beauty and lifestyle trends through continually striving to deliver products of distinction to customers.

Over the years, it has received avid support from advertisers and readers. Over 520 products for over 46 categories were evaluated for the 2011 awards.

Her World’s expert panel, consisting of editors, beauty writers, doctors, and hairstyling and makeup experts, was formed to nominate the best of beauty products launched between October 2009 and September 2010. Road tests on these nominated products were conducted by the team to determine the winners for the “Editors’ Choice”.

Readers were also invited to nominate and vote for their favourite products by sending nomination forms found in the magazine or via online at herworld.com. The voting results were collated to derive the winners under “Readers’ Choice”.

This year, the following special awards will also be given out:  NEW BRAND  BEST CABIN  NEW TREND (Detox Skincare)  BEST NEW RETAIL EXPERIENCE  BEST NEW BEAUTY FACE  TOP 10 PRODUCTS OF THE YEAR

An awards presentation ceremony will be held to hand out the awards to the winners of the various categories.
