My Face My Body<br />
Awards<br />
are coming to Australia<br />
My Face My body are<br />
the only consumer<br />
awards dedicated<br />
to the aesthetic<br />
industry, <strong>and</strong> this<br />
November they’re<br />
coming to Australia.<br />
The MyFaceMyBody Awards were launched in the UK in 2012, <strong>and</strong> are<br />
coming to Australia this November. They celebrate the best in the cosmetic<br />
industry, as voted by consumers. Different awards include Cosmeceutical<br />
Range of the Year <strong>and</strong> Best Anti-Ageing Product or Treatment. There are also<br />
separate categories for practices/practitioners <strong>and</strong> industry media, including<br />
awards for Best Plastic <strong>Surgery</strong> Product or Device <strong>and</strong> Best Advertising<br />
Campaign by a Manufacturer or Supplier.<br />
After a mammoth response at the London Awards, founder of MyFaceMyBody<br />
Stephen H<strong>and</strong>isides is bringing the awards to Australia. He’s aiming to give<br />
consumers a voice in voting on their favourite br<strong>and</strong>s, products <strong>and</strong> services in<br />
the cosmetic market.<br />
The awards culminate in a red carpet event attended by 300 leading industry<br />
professionals, br<strong>and</strong>s, journalists <strong>and</strong> celebrities. Leading up to the big night, a<br />
team of international judges – with exceptional experience in the industry – draw<br />
up the final shortlist for each category. Importantly, the awards are voted by the<br />
consumer, positioning MyFaceMyBody as the only consumer-driven awards in<br />
the aesthetic industry.<br />
Bridging the gap between the aesthetic medicine market <strong>and</strong> mainstream<br />
beauty <strong>and</strong> fashion sectors is what MyFaceMyBody is all about. H<strong>and</strong>isides<br />
believes the awards will be a valuable addition to the ever-growing Australian<br />
aesthetic industry. ‘After the huge success of the UK awards, I wanted to bring<br />
the awards closer to home in Australia where the popularity of aesthetics <strong>and</strong><br />
beauty is rocketing,’ explains H<strong>and</strong>isides, who was born in New Zeal<strong>and</strong>. ‘The<br />
awards climax in an evening of exceptional glamour <strong>and</strong> celebrity, the likes of<br />
which the aesthetic industry rarely sees.’ csbm<br />
