It’s that time of the year again! The NYX Face Awards are back and better than ever. (Never heard of the NYX Face Awards? Check out this years promo video here or below.) With the goal of showcasing the work of anyone who loves creating unique beauty looks, this year’s competition is bound to bring to light the next big names in makeup artistry.

Taylor & Pond is proud to support NYX Cosmetics in making the Face Awards the most notable makeup competition in the world by working closely with the brand to develop the competition’s online portal. Throughout our many years of this collaboration, we’ve loved seeing how NYX has developed as a brand and how they’ve elevated the Face Awards to be the must-follow beauty competition of the year!
