NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - November 12, 2015) - Influenster, the leading product discovery and reviews site, is debuting its first ever Reviewers' Choice Awards: Best in Beauty. This exciting celebration of the top beauty brands and products is a culmination of the robust collection of quality product reviews and ratings on Influenster.com -- a growing community of over 1.5 million members who have written over five million reviews.
The first beauty product award program of its kind, this is the only online-voting awards platform where the nominees are chosen based on reviews and user-generated content by the Influenster community. Our members are the voice and ultimate judge of the best in beauty.
Influenster selected these nominated products -- in 60 categories that span across makeup, skincare, hair, and nails -- based on members' activity on Influenster's review platform, including the quality, quantity, and recency of reviews, ratings, commonly-used phrases, questions asked, answers given, shares made, and product lists created that include the product.
Members and the general public will have the final say on the winners via a voting process. Voting officially opens today and members are encouraged to vote for their favorite, standout products. Voters have until November 25 to finalize their selections before the poll closes; winners will be announced in the winter.
