Top best cosmetic brands

In everything related to beauty, every woman strives for perfection, therefore the best facial care cosmetics in the world will almost always top the rating of personal preferences. It makes sense that to look perfect you only need the best cosmetics you can find. These are exactly what we will talk about in our rating, which has collected only the TOP and most modern facial skin care products that exist in the world.

Rating of professional cosmetics for face care

Not all women distinguish between professional cosmetics and mass-market care products that are sold on supermarket shelves.

This is an exclusively mass budget product segment that is incomparable in quality and efficiency.

In most cases, they can be found in studios and beauty salons, as well as in branded stores. With these brands of cosmetics, facial care will be of the highest quality and effective. Of course, all products are not only leaders in reviews and recommendations of professional cosmetologists, but have also undergone many laboratory studies confirming their quality.

You can find these best skin care products at your local store. And they are not inferior to professional ones!

The independent consulting agency Brand Finance®, among others, annually publishes a list of the fifty best cosmetic brands in the world.

You can find the full rating on the agency's official website. Unauthorized users have access to only the top ten data.

Brand Finance® forms a rating based specifically on the popularity of a particular brand - the issue of quality is absolutely irrelevant here. For our part, we decided to supplement the list by including cosmetics brands that were previously present in the Brand Finance® rating, but fell out of the top 50, and those that cannot be included in the list of the most popular ones, due, for example, to their elitism (Rimmel London Christian Dior, Saint Laurent etc.), relative novelty (NudeStix) or insufficient popularity in the market of a particular country (for example, little-known cosmetics in Russia Natura).

The list includes brands from different countries and different price categories (mass, middle, luxury market), producing care and decorative cosmetics for men and women.

Each country has developed its own list of cosmetics, enshrined in the legislative framework. In Russia, this list includes essential oils. Modern cosmetics include formulations based on natural ingredients: Organic, Bio. In France, such products are called BIO, in Germany - NaTrue and BDIH, in the UK - Soil Association, in Russia - BioRus.
