COSMOPROF AWARDS 2018

The Trophy

As a symbol of our beauty industry, the trophy of Cosmoprof Awards 2018 is made of a glass bubble, expressing delicacy, elegance, design and craftmanship, and a metal base, conveying the essential scientific and technical approach of beauty. The metal piece raises and highlights the glass piece, creating a luxurious object. This interaction is illustrating the essential exchanges between the packaging industry and the bulk industry, this collective intelligence offering the most glamourous and effective beauty products. 
This Cosmoprof award expresses the strength of gathering complementary expertises, through an original idea created by a beauty product design agency and sculpted by a glass artist.

The bubble is blown in glass by the artist, and its precise silhouette depends on the craftsman breath, offering a precious artistic variability while keeping a collection unity. As each winner has a specific value, each award is unique!

Centdegrés and MMB have collaborated to manufacture the Cosmoprof and Cosmopack awards. According to the 3 different categories, the glass piece has a specific finish and look. In this way, these unique trophies should galvanize the beauty industry to create the most exciting products in order to get the greatest Cosmoprof award collection.
