Grazia Beauty Awards 2018: Win All The Winners!

These little pods of skin-renewing goodness cut the faff out of retinol – a notoriously feisty ingredient that can send skin a little haywire at first. Not only does one convenient capsule deliver the ideal concentration (alongside a cocktail of do-gooders) but it also keeps the ingredients optimally fresh - for all the brightening, tightening, tone-evening results without the downfall.

If you're after some va-va-voom in the volume department (that makes most of us), then you need to get your hands (and hairs) on this A-SAP. It lends limp strands instant oomph that doesn't fall at the first hurdle, thanks to lighter but larger volumising particles that can go the distance without weighing hair down.

The definition of palette porn, this four-part shadow line-up is the thing of smoky eyed dreams. Ruddy red, shimmering copper and glinting gold truly make a killer combo that flatters all skin tones. Just. So. Good.

This will make you rethink the shape of every other lipstick you own. See that sharp tip? It makes for the perfect liner tool, whilst the creamy matte formula gives all the pigment punch could hope for, without any of the dryness. It's a lipstick love affair.

Fresh, clean and a little fruity in a playful yet sophisticated way, Armani's latest Si works just as well for a Monday meeting power perfume as it does Friday drinks and Sunday strolls. With familiar rose and jasmine offset with vanilla, cedarwood and a punchy pink pepper, it's a scent that has it's say (and gets its way) without having to shout.

From the £1 lipstick that holds its own against a £20 one, to this power palette that houses 20 (yes, 20!) on point eyeshadow shades for a mere £8, Primark have seriously impressed on the beauty front this year. Efficacy aside, they've also been awarded the leaping bunny, showing each and every one of their own-brand cosmetics is cruelty free (as they should be).

Not all eye creams are created equal and, just like the cult classic ANR serum, this is in a league of its own when it comes to targeted technology and results. Lightweight and antioxidant-packed, the patented gel speedily sinks into skin, leaving the eye area noticeably brighter, smoother, more hydrated and unbeatable in a fight against pollutants. Eye do.

If I thought I was having a good hair day with my ten-year-old GHD straighteners, then stop the press; because I'm having a succession of beyond fantastic ones with these. Thanks to advanced predictive technology, the ceramic plates adapt to individual hair types and textures to prevent over-frazzling heat damage. Here's to another ten years of silky-smooth hair bliss.

Addressing the significant lack of options on the high street for women with afro hair, Pantene launched a 6-part collection dedicated to conditioning curls and coils at an affordable price point. The hero? This supremely hydrating wonder, with rich argan and jojoba oils to leave kinks notably soft. Gold stars all round.

Revolution by name, revolution by nature. Yes, that perfectly coned tip, which makes getting to every last millimeter of lashes a total doddle, is the first in the world to be created by 3D printing. Expect a fan of jet-black, fluttery lashes with zero smudges or clumps. We worship at the altar.

Even the most skeptical skincare cynics will have a hard time trying to fault this US smash-hit skincare brand, which finally landed in the UK this year (after much petitioning on our part). It impressively bridges that formulation fine-line between natural and scientific ingredients, looks good on the shelf and does what it says on the tin. We're drunk in love.

If you're yet to acquaint yourself with the latest incarnation of Olay's cult classic Regenerist formula, rectify that pronto! 10 years in the making, the whipped cream texture quickly melts into liquid on the skin (delivering peptides and vitamins at rapid speed), with a shine-free, soft-matte finish. Total game-changer.

If your dream of having Rapunzel-esque lengths has been repeatedly crushed by the reality of fine, damaged hair (ours too) – turn your head to this bona fide hair hero. With a 'Creatine R Complex', which uses repairing actives like amino-acid and lipids, hair grows stronger and healthier from the inside out.

When Peter Philips, Dior Makeup's Creative and Image Director, curates a backstage survival kit for catwalk results, we take notice. The star product - this cover all bases foundation - is so creamy in texture it can easily build up from light to full coverage – putting the power entirely in your hands. Plus, the 40-strong shade range, with 6 undertones, makes finding a perfect match easy as.

Softly-defined, naturally full brows aren't just for those who are genetically blessed. This nifty retractable pen has us all covered with two shades to fill in sparse hairs, an edge definer to sharpen the shape and an arch highlighter to accentuate the brow bone. We're hooked.

A little bit sweet, but a hell-of-a-lot sultry, this sophisticated blend of cocoa, ginger and maninka fruit is a definite crowd pleaser and has cult classic written all over it. Oh, and Jamie Dornan is the face. We'll leave you with that.
