It was most certainly the highest calibre of applicants we had ever received and made the judging almost impossible. Simply reaching the finals was a massive achievement, and all who entered should be applauded. And of course congratulations to all our worthy 2023 winners! Click here to see who they were. We look forward to hopfully seeing even more of you enter this year!

Here's what some of last years winners had to say:

Andrea Simpson – Facialist Winner 2023

“Winning the BABTAC/CIBTAC Facialist of the Year is the highest honour and the proudest moment of my career. To be regarded and judged to be at the very top, by the very best in our incredible industry is something I will treasure for a lifetime.”

“Winning has opened up doors and introduced me to so many inspirational peers. It has raised my profile - from radio interviews to local press - and firmly made me stand out as a leader in my field of facials. It has been an amazing process, and going through the awards application is a great practice to reflect on the wins a year can bring and highlight just how much we actually do to make ourselves and our businesses excel.”

Katie Pearson – Mobile Therapist Winner 2023

“Go for it! I learnt so much along the way, from editing videos all the way through to improving my treatments. I really pushed myself out of my comfort zone and I haven't looked back. I'm so proud to tell my clients that I won the award and I hope it highlights that the Beauty industry goes beyond treatments.”

Nawar Raichura - Make-up Artist Winner 2023

"Winning a prestigious award from organizations like BABTAC has profoundly impacted my career as a makeup artist. This accolade not only recognizes the dedication and countless hours invested in honing my craft, but also elevates my professional standing within the industry. The validation from such a reputable organization has opened doors to exciting opportunities and collaborations. It serves as a tangible testament to the passion and creativity that define my journey in the competitive world of makeup artistry."

"It means everything! It’s hard for us to put into words how much an award like this means to us and we are beyond proud that the industry has rewarded us in such a way. It has been an overwhelming experience and an honour to be recognised by such an establishment once, let alone twice! It’s more than we could dream of so thank you! We are exceptionally proud of our team and it has been a privilege to evolve the business with them, their hard work and dedication has been simply the best, we couldn't do it without them."
