The results are in for Meredith Corporation's Parents Beauty Awards 2021.

 

“For the 10th annual Beauty Awards, Parents consulted moms and, for the first time, dads, to judge the best new offerings in beauty and self-care,” said Parents editor-in-chief Julia Edelstein. “After many months at home, parents are eager to step out feeling fresh and put together—and the winning products all help with that effort.” 

 

Thirty-five moms and even a few dads tested 160 new makeup, hair, and skin launches to select a total of 33 products that passed a set of standards for quality, ease of use, and inclusivity for Parents magazine, the leading source for busy, Millennial moms. Foundations came in at least 30 shades, and tinted moisturizers in 10. All skin and hair winners who gave their stamp of approval matched their own skin types and hair textures with the selected products.
