2014 Editor’s Choice Awards
I’m pleased to announce the winners of the 2014 Editor’s Choice Awards! These are my absolute, all-time favorites across various categories, with each category having two winners: a high-end and a budget-friendly. If you’ve ever wondered what the best products in beauty are, based on my experience, this is that list. They’re tried-and-true, and many winners are multi-year winners, which means their quality and performance have withstood the test of time.
