Entries are now open for The Marie Claire UK Skin Awards 2026.

Now in their eighth year, the awards return with a fresh look and an even more considered list of categories, created to reflect what today’s skincare audience is actively searching for.

Entries are open across face and body, spanning cleanse, moisturise, treat, sustainability and new to market, giving brands more opportunities to put their most effective, innovative and thoughtfully created products forward.

Every submission will be rigorously trialled and tested by the Marie Claire UK beauty team and a panel of skincare-focused experts, with products judged on performance, innovation, packaging and sustainability.

Winners will be celebrated through dedicated editorial content on marieclaire.co.uk, shared with Marie Claire’s audience of 8.6 million. They will also receive a complimentary carbon-neutral bamboo trophy and the opportunity to license the official Skin Awards logo.

The entry deadline is 20 August, with product delivery deadline on 28 August. Winners will be announced in November.
