The Cosmetic Executive Women (CEW) group has announced its winners for their 2011 Beauty Awards.

Over 4,000 beauty insiders and professionals sniffed, sprayed and smoothed on products from nearly 600 entries in 26 product categories for what's considered the "Oscars" of the beauty industry.

"When it comes to buying beauty products, women are looking for proven performance and value. The CEW Beauty Awards make it easy to get insight on the best products in order to be able to make an informed decision when choosing and purchasing a product," says Carlotta Jacobson, CEW President.

Top honors include: blow, the New York blow-dry bar, which picked up the Indie Beauty Award for the brightest new startup in the world, and Yves Rocher North America Inc Culture Bio, which received the first-ever Eco Beauty Award for its line of sustainable products.
