Free From Gift Awards - a new skincare awards for gift boxes and sets
I have some exciting news to announce, readers and natural skincare brands should pay attention. We all love the buzz surrounding beauty awards and the team behind the Free From Skincare Awards have announced the launch of the Free From Gift Awards which will run from September to November.
Director Alex Gazzola says "For years, the Free From Skincare Awards have been dedicated solely to individual cosmetics and their performance, but entrants regularly ask us whether they can submit a gift box, beauty set or other skincare collection, Well, now they can!"
This new skincare award is timed to coincide with the run-up to Christmas, the Awards seek boxes and sets of between two and six items, at least half of which must be skincare products meeting the same criteria of the Free From Skincare Awards. Categories include Face Care, Bath & Body Care, Soap Bars, and Men’s Grooming, and there will be additional themed awards, such as for Vegan Gifts, ‘Sleep & Serenity’ and Luxury Gifts.
"Although testers and judges will be looking for the usual attributes of efficacy, clear labelling, skin benefits, value for money and more, there will be an additional focus on the gifting aspect. Is the box or set a great gift to give? Or to receive? This is what we’ll be asking and looking for."
I would encourage any skincare fans reading this to speak to their favourite brands and ask them to enter their gift sets. I'm sure at this time many small indie brands would love to have your support and encouragement, this could help boost sales for the festive season. We all know 2020 has been tough on many companies so now is the time to help. Let them know that the Free From Gift Awards are open for entry until the 27th September, with the announcement of winners expected in early November.
