This year, the Prix d’Excellence de la Beauté marks its 40th anniversary—a rare kind of longevity in an industry defined by constant renewal.
Since its inception, the awards have held a distinct position within the global beauty landscape. Judged by Marie Claire Beauty Directors across international editions, alongside local panels of industry experts, the Prix has never been driven by noise or visibility. Instead, it recognises what is most considered—formulas that introduce something new, and shift expectations in a way that lasts.
