Superstars of the beauty world revealed
7th June

They spend over £37million on beauty products every month – and now readers of News of the World’s Fabulous Magazine have voted in their droves to choose the winners of the 2011 Fabulous Beauty Awards.
Over 14,000 readers voted on their beauty must-haves, and the prestigious list of winners was revealed in Fabulous Magazine on Sunday 5 June.
From magical mascaras to must-have moisturisers, favourite fake tans to flawless foundations, the line-up of beauty booty makes essential reading for any grooming fan.
In addition to the readers’ choices, the magazine’s beauty team tried and tested hundreds of products to come up with their own ‘Fabulous Loves’ recommendations, which also featured in the magazine.
Rachel Richardson, Editor of Fabulous Magazine, said: “Now in their third year, the Fabulous Beauty Awards are fast becoming a major milestone in the beauty industry calendar.
“Fabulous Magazine’s 5.5 million readers have some serious spending power - and they’ve voted these products as the ones that keep them looking great and feeling fabulous.
“So any brand that has made the cut can be confident it’s impressed some of the high street’s toughest critics, and should be rightly proud of this impressive accolade.”
