MODELROCK Wins TWO Categories in 2026 Universal Beauty Awards!
Australian-owned cosmetics brand MODELROCK, has done it again, winning another 2 X awards titles and a Silver Medal, in the 2026 Universal Beauty Awards!
Celebrating inclusive makeup and beauty across the globe, the 2026 Universal Beauty Awards has recognised MODELROCK as winners in the Best Lip Product category, and the overall Best Australian Beauty Brand!
Announced online in the UK on 1st February 2026, for the 2nd consecutive year, MODELROCK maintains the title of Best Australian Beauty Brand for their commitment to innovation, inclusion, longevity, reputation, environmental conscience, and product development.
The MODELROCK team was also absolutely thrilled to see their 2025-release Creamy Longwear Lip Liner win the Best Lip Product category, and the INDUSTRY-FIRST Pro Blonde Lash Bond+Sealer Duo Pen with Ultra Luxe Espresso Clusters Bundle awarded a Silver Medal for Best False Lashes.
The Universal Beauty Awards embrace beauty brands from around the world, combining separate regions for all brands globally, with separate categories for Best Beauty Brands in each region. The awards exist in response to past winners who didn’t identify as makeup and therefore are for every brand. Receiving over 700 entries from across all sectors and judged by international beauty experts over 2-3 months, 2026 heralds the biggest year for the awards to date, with game-changing beauty products from every sector, electronics, hair care, well-being, supplements, skincare, makeup, body care and many more, ensuring fierce competition.
Says MODELROCK CEO and Founder, Raelene Mara, “These award wins always mean the world to us, and to be recognised across Brand, Lips and Lashes wouldn’t be possible without our amazing customers, makeup artists and supporters; THANK YOU for always believing in what we create.”
“Without you we would not be here and will be forever grateful. Celebrating our 14th anniversary in 2026, we are still filled with the love and excitement for MODELROCK as we were on Day One, and we still have so much joy when we see customers using, recommending and loving our products.”
In addition to winning 2 x MAGAP Australian Beauty Brand of the Year awards in 2019 & 2023, in 2024/2025 MODELROCK also had success across various awards platforms, including winning 2025 Universal Beauty Awards Best Aus/NZ Beauty Brand, 2025 Pure Beauty UK Awards Highly Commended, 2024 Global Makeup Awards Best Beauty Brand Aus/NZ, two SILVER medals in the 2024 Universal Beauty Awards for their Lip Essentials and LASH PLAY products, a Highly Commended award in the 2024 Pure Beauty Global Awards for their Tube Tech Tubular Mascara, and Finalist nomination in the Australian Beauty Industry Awards for Best Business Performance.
Since MODELROCK’s inception 14 years ago, it has been their mission and vision to be Australia’s leading supplier and manufacturer of premium quality faux lashes and cosmetics, and to also ensure their products are 100% VEGAN and Cruelty Free.
Every day in the MODELROCK business is a learning process; learning about different manufacturing processes, aligning with manufacturers and customers who reflect their business values/ethics, delivering artist collaborations that inspire and invigorate, and all the different business protocols that propel them forward as the business continues to evolve.
