Poko Regenerating Collagen Moisturizer and Brightening Rosewater Toner Win Editor’s Prize at the Beauty Shortlist Mama & Baby Awards

Free From Skincare Awards 2022 to Be Announced July 19

LONDON, UK and DUBLIN, IRELAND / ACCESSWIRE / July 11, 2022 / (CSE:POKO): POKO Innovations, Ltd., an award-winning UK-based collection of CBD-focused companies that bring innovative, inspiring solutions to the CBD industry through the company’s leading platforms which when working together form a complete ecosystem, is delighted to share POKO’s Regenerating Collagen Moisturizer and Brightening Rosewater Toner have won Editor’s Choice at the Beauty Shortlist Mama & Baby Awards.

The Beauty Shortlist “Baby and Mama Awards,” first launched in 2014, recognizes natural and organic products that are perfect for mothers or babies, including plant-powered skincare, beauty and self-care products, practical solutions and more. The products are sent to industry experts worldwide to test and judge, ensuring they are clean, green and can be trusted by ingredient-conscious consumers.

Poko has also been shortlisted as finalists for the Free From Skincare Awards 2022 in three categories. Now in its eleventh year, Free From Skin Care Awards screens hundreds of brands on the market that provide ‘free from’ alternatives. The awards open in late winter, with finalists announced July 5 and winners announced on July 19. Three POKO products have been nominated for awards in the following categories:

The finalist announcements are a tremendous achievement for POKO, due to the sheer volume of entrants and competition between brands: the company is competing against market leaders such as Skin Sapiens, Kinvara Skincare and Sukin, among others. POKO is ecstatic at having swept up three finalist spots and hopes to win awards in all three categories.

What Makes Poko ‘Free From’?

The three POKO products entered in the Free From Awards meet all ‘Free From’ requirements – they contain neither alcohol nor silicone, and they are vegan and cruelty-free, in line with POKO company values. Brightening Rosewater Toner and Soothing Serum are also nut-free, though Hempsoriasis Balm contains various nut ingredients, including shea nut butter. Products are submitted to the expert testing panel of the Free From Skincare Awards and selected for meeting strict criteria. Check here for more on Poko’s ‘Free From’ mission.
