Telegraph Beauty Awards Reveal The Best New Beauty Products of 2024

The Telegraph has announced the winners for its inaugural Beauty Awards 2024. The Awards were established to give recognition to the beauty lines and products that The Telegraph’s beauty experts and guest judge Cat Deeley found to be most deserving of readers’ time and money.

The Awards were flooded with nominations from across the beauty industry and in under two weeks received over 730 entries for the 12 open categories.

In addition to the open categories there are six special ‘Grand Prix’ awards that highlight brands excelling in affordability, inclusivity and sustainability. There are also prizes for The Telegraph’s favourite Beauty Retailer; Beauty Brand of the Year and finally The Telegraph Subscribers’ Choice Award for the Best Beauty Icon which saw nearly 2,000 subscriber votes cast.

For the past month, and in some cases, considerably longer – the judges put the shortlisted beauty products to the test. The judging was overseen by esteemed guest judge Cat Deeley, presenter of This Morning, along with The Telegraph’s beauty experts, Sonia Haria, Beauty Director, Annabel Jones, Beauty Editor at Large, Lisa Markwell, Editor of The Telegraph Magazine, the Magazine’s Deputy Editor, Naomi Greenway and Lisa Armstrong, Head of Fashion.

Cat Deeley, Telegraph Beauty Awards Guest Judge, said: "I love discovering new products; there are ones I tried throughout judging the Telegraph Beauty Awards that have gone straight into my This Morning Studio kit!"

Sonia Haria, The Telegraph’s Beauty Director, said: “We were delighted with the breadth of entries and interest in the Awards. The winners all have the Telegraph stamp of approval, ensuring that they are recognised as best-in-class for beauty fans looking for effective, personally recommended options.

“In addition to showcasing the winning brands and products in tomorrow’s Telegraph Magazine, all the winners will be celebrated at a winners’ breakfast in central London.”
