I was super excited to be a judge for the 5th annual CertClean Clean Beauty Awards! I shared this news on Instagram

I was even more excited to find out I would be judging my favourite beauty products – Face oils!

I was sent 10 face oils to put to the test..

Over 370 products entered for 2019/2020 and judging took place from August to December. The global Clean Beauty Awards are completely independent – each product was tried, tested, and scored by an independent panel of judges located in North America, Europe and Australia.

I judged each product on:

Overall performance (does the product do what it says it would do)
Ease of use (application process, clear instructions etc)
User Experience (odour, texture, residue, absorption rate)
Recommendation (would you recommend this product to others?)

I will be sharing a review of the oils in a later post…stay tuned.

My top 3 oils were:

Neven Balance Facial oil
Amaki Botanical Skincare Japanese Tsubaki Anti-aging Face Oil
Biossance Squalane + Vitamin C Rose oil
