The "I Recommend" Awards

Each year, thousands of beauty advisors and readers cast their votes for the products they recommend most. Grounded in real consumer insight, from why they’re loved to why they’re repurchased, these top picks span skincare, makeup, fragrance, and beyond.

As a beauty advisor with a passion for product, share your top recommendations in this year's "I Recommend" Awards. The top choices will be published in the summer issue of Cosmetics Magazine along with your quote for why they are your fave!

Thank you To our amazing community of Beauty Advisors for submitting your top beauty recommendations for the 2026 “I Recommend” Beauty Awards!
