On Sunday, August 27th, a remarkable event took place as the stars of the Australian beauty realm congregated to honour the winners of the 2023 Australian Beauty Industry Awards (ABIA's). The prestigious ABIA gala unfolded at Sydney's exquisite venue, The Star, drawing nearly 700 of the nation's best in aesthetics, creativity, and entrepreneurship for an unforgettable evening.
The ABIA's, which encompass a diverse array of categories, have been instrumental in setting a standard of distinction within both specialised and individual sectors of the beauty and makeup industries. As a foundational pillar since its inception in 2011, the Australian Beauty Industry Awards (ABIA) stand as the epitome of trustworthiness in national award platforms within the beauty and aesthetic sector. Recognising excellence across an extensive spectrum of categories, these awards pay homage to the finest salons, spas, and clinics throughout the nation.
Winners were judged by a comprehensive list of over 30 local and international make-up artists, stylists, business, media and industry expert judges.
