Beauty Shortlist is no ordinary awards competition. In 2012, the Beauty Shortlist Awards were founded by natural beauty journalist and organic lifestyle advocate Fiona Klonarides to support, reward and celebrate outstanding natural and organic products in the beauty, care and wellness sector.

The Beauty Shortlist Awards are completely independent (no sponsors or advertising), ensuring a truly level playing field for large, well-established global brands and small craft brands. Known for their transparency and ethical focus, the awards are closely watched by consumers, beauty industry professionals, retail buyers of beauty products and journalists.

“The awards are a reliable guide to outstanding products that have actually been tried and tested by an expert panel and that we can 100% guarantee are worth buying,” explains Beauty Shortlist founder Fiona Klonarides.

The annual Beauty Shortlist Awards are presented to the outstanding brands in the natural and organic cosmetics market. Entries from around the world are judged by three fully independent panels of experts from the USA, UK and Australia. During the product testing process itself, a panel of experts thoroughly tests and compares all products against each other, with the biggest brands in the cosmetics industry (such as Dr. Hauschka, Weleda, Meraki, Dr. Levi, Osea, etc.) also in the running for the awards. Experts independently search for the highest standards of quality and performance in the field of beauty, care and well-being.

NANU’s winning products are characterised by their highly effective formulations, which include carefully selected clinically proven active ingredients that not only target the signs of ageing and sun damage, uneven skin tone, address skin problems such as dry skin, blemishes and acne, but actually support all aspects of healthy skin.

Quality cosmetics are an important part of holistic self-care, and just as “what we put in” is important, “what we put on” is also important, so as well as eating healthy foods and drinking enough fluids, we should also look for great nutrients in cosmetic products. Because if we take good care of ourselves, we will not only accept ourselves, but really enjoy life – as it is – that much more. A beauty routine such as the one promoted by the NANU cosmetic line (NANU means beautiful girl in Hindi) thus primarily promotes nurturing and self-love.

“Women are always thinking about what to fix on ourselves, not about how to accept ourselves holistically and take care of ourselves with love, which also means choosing quality beauty products. NANU facial care products are therefore designed to help you to look after yourself. through them and through a beauty routine – time and care that we dedicate exclusively to ourselves – we awaken the confident and beautiful girl that lies within each of us,” says Nuša Marinc, founder of NANU Cosmetics.

At NAN, we are immensely proud of the awards we have won, not only because our products have impressed international experts and received inspiring reviews, landing us among the winners and earning us several prestigious EDITOR’S CHOICE awards in illustrious company, but also because awards like this confirm that we are on the right track and give us the drive to take on the challenges that lie ahead.

As for NANU itself, Beauty Shortlist says: “A beautiful brand to discover! The NANU collection of active natural cosmetics by Formula Botanica graduate Nuša Marinc is particularly interesting because it’s made in small batches (which means the products are super fresh), and it’s modular, allowing you to tailor your beauty routine in a way that best suits your skin type or concerns. The award-winning NANU range features intelligent formulas packed with great-tasting, effective ingredients that will take your skincare routine to the next level – a deserved winner of the Beauty Shortlist Awards 2023.”
