It’s that time of year again – Glossars time. Hurrah!
For those who are new to beautyheaven and aren’t quite sure what all the fuss is about, we hold our Glosscar Awards every year to recognise the best new beauty releases across almost 60 categories. The best bit is that the winners are picked by you, our fabulous members, who have tried, tested and have something to say about the beauty buys you love.
Here’s a reminder of how it all works…
The nominations
beautyheaven invited the beauty industry to nominate award-worthy new products within a range of beauty categories. To be eligible for this year’s Glosscar nominations, products must have been launched on to the Australian market between 1 January and 31 December, 2012 and be available to review on beautyheaven.com.au.
How to vote
We’ve gathered the nominations together – now it’s time for you be the judge! Simply submit a review and star rating for your favourite nominees and the star rating will count as points toward the coveted award (so four stars will mean four votes). To give your favourite beauty buys an extra boost, you’ll also have the opportunity to award three products the following secret points:
1 x 20 point vote
1 x 10 point vote
1 x 5 point vote
These three extra special votes should go to products you’re seriously silly over and would love to see win a Glosscar award. Please note you will only have the opportunity to vote in the secret ballot once, and you must vote for three different nominated products from any category for your secret ballot to be counted (so sadly you can’t nominate any products that aren’t up for the award). To submit your secret vote simply fill in the form at the bottom of this page.
The product in each category with the highest number of points (from star ratings and secret votes) at the end of the voting period will be awarded a 2014 Glosscar Award. Should a tie occur, reviews and the overall star ratings of the products in question will be considered, and a winner determined by beautyheaven’s editorial team.
Please note: if you have previously reviewed a product (before 9 February 2014) that’s now nominated but you feel it’s worthy of a Glosscar award, you are able to submit a second review.
Voting is exclusive to registered beautyheaven members. (Not yet a member? Sign up here now!)
Voting closes AEST midnight on Sunday 23 February 2014.
Important
Voting (by submitting reviews and the secret ballot) is ONLY open to beautyheaven members who are beauty fanatic status and above. Votes from beauty lover votes will not be counted. If you are currently a beauty lover, start reviewing products, commenting on blogs, sharing articles, and posting in the forums so you move up the ranks.
Vote to win!
Want to win the ultimate in beauty loot? Once the votes have been cast we’ll be giving away packs containing a selection of the winning products to 15 lucky members! These must-have goodie packs are valued on average at more than $1,000 each, and will be awarded to the 15 members who we believe have contributed the most valuable (quality, not necessarily quantity!) reviews throughout the voting process.
