Cosmetic Executive Women (CEW) virtually announced the finalists for 2020 Beauty Awards, which celebrate the most innovative and groundbreaking new products of the year and remain the industry’s highest honor, according to CEW which, in collaboration with the New York Chapter of the Society of Cosmetic Chemists (NYSCC) also announced the six finalists of the Supplier’s Award: Ingredients & Formulation.
Finalists from the 45 categories were selected from more than 1,200 entries, represented by hundreds of brands, and were exclusively selected by a vote of CEW members, all of whom are beauty industry professionals. These finalists will be reviewed CEW’s board of governors and select industry insiders to vote to determine the winners in each category, which will be revealed November 13 for a virtual Beauty Awards.

These finalists will be reviewed CEW’s board of governors and select industry insiders to vote to determine the winners in each category, which will be revealed November 13 for a virtual Beauty Awards.
“For nearly three decades, the CEW Beauty Awards continue to be the only beauty awards selected by beauty professionals – those who truly know the best in beauty,” says Carlotta Jacobson, President of CEW. “These awards continue to guide consumers as they navigate the beauty space, discovering the most creative and innovative products, demonstrating the ongoing evolution of the industry.”
In a year that saw $83 billion in US beauty sales, according to Nielsen, innovation among entrants was seen across a variety of categories. Those that rose to the top include the uber ingredient CBD, sexual wellness, supplements, indie and niche-stige brands, "clean-ical" skin care and hair treatments, along with the new categories sexual wellness, skin care face masks, hair accessories and unisex fragrance.
“For the first time, the Beauty Awards Finalists were announced in a livestream broadcast with an opportunity to interact and engage with viewers in real time,” Jacobson added. “CEW’s partnership with Kirbie and Sara, co-hosts of the popular podcast, Gloss Angeles, have brought the excitement and notoriety of CEW’s Beauty Awards program to an even broader audience.”
