Our Finalists have Arrived!
The moment we have all been waiting for is here. We are proud to officially announce the finalists for the 2026 LASHIE Awards.
Known as the Oscars of the lash industry, the LASHIE Awards were created to recognize the artists, salon owners, educators, and brands who are raising the standard and shaping the future of our industry.
Each year, lash professionals from around the world submit their work, their stories, their businesses, their artistry, and their impact for consideration. Every application represents more than a category entry. It represents courage, growth, leadership, creativity, resilience, and the willingness to be seen.
To every artist, salon owner, educator, and brand who applied, thank you.
Thank you for trusting us with your work. Thank you for sharing what you have built. Thank you for continuing to push this industry forward in ways both visible and behind the scenes.
This year’s finalists represent the heart of the lash industry. From solo artists building their name one client at a time, to salon owners leading teams and creating unforgettable client experiences, to brands developing the products, education, and innovation artists rely on every day, these finalists remind us just how powerful this industry truly is.
