About The Beauty Shortlist Eco Awards
Now in their third year, the planet-positive Eco Lifestyle Awards were launched in 2021 to encourage consumers (and retailers) to adopt a much less “throw-away lifestyle” – by choosing planet-friendly, recyclable, zero waste products that help protect our collective home, our planet, instead, and opting to reuse, recycle and refill.
The Awards remain – as always – 100% sponsor-free and provide a level, equitable playing field for big household names and indie artisan brands alike. The Beauty Shortlist Eco Lifestyle Awards shine the spotlight on the brightest, most sustainable and solution-orientated earth-friendly brands across multiple sectors from beauty and wellness to green home/clean cleaning products.

- Ocean & Forest Protection
