Best Beauty Products: Japanese Cosmetics Ranking 2024

The Best Cosmetics Awards 2024: Grand Prize/Hall of Fame/Best New Buys

cosme ranking 2024 grand prize
@cosme is Japan’s biggest and the most influential online beauty community that introduces a wide range of cosmetics products with reviews from real users. It hosts beauty awards called The Best Cosmetics Awards twice a year (in June and December), featuring the up-to-date rankings of popular beauty products in Japan by categories, including skin care, makeup, body and hair care. The awards are incredibly influential as they are based on real users’ votes, and award-winning products tend to become even more popular or sell out quickly after awards are announced.

The Best Cosmetics Awards 2024 are lately revealed with the latest rankings of to-rated cosmetics products in Japan. In this article, we will be looking at the list of beauty products that won the most honorable titles: the Grand Prize, Hall of Fame and Year-End Best New Buys. Let’s find out the best cosmetics products to buy in Japan for 2024–2025!

If you wish to check out more rankings from different categories including skin care and makeup, I have attached links to them on the bottom of the page, too 🙂
