During at the recent inaugural Malaysia Health & Beauty Awards 2026, everyday favourites to top-performing best sellers were being recognised and celebrated as Malaysians genuinely use, trust and return to in their daily health and beauty routines.
Organised in partnership with BIG Pharmacy and CARiNG Pharmacy under BIG CARING Group, the awards are guided by the theme “Celebrating Health. Honouring Beauty.” and recognised products across three pillars – Malaysia’s Choice, Best Seller and Experts’ Choice.
The awards dinner included a keynote speech by Tan Sri Dato’ Seri Dr. Haji Noor Hisham Abdullah, the former Director-General of Health of Malaysia. He mentioned that the awards are an important measure of quality in the health and beauty industry. He emphasized that the awards honor brands and products that do more than just sell; they also help people, innovate, and build trust.
This year, over 200,000 votes were cast across the country, showing a clear connection between what Malaysians prefer, what sells well, and what is recognized by experts. A total of 110 awards were given out, including 83 Best Sellers awards, 19 Malaysia’s Choice awards, and seven Experts’ Choice awards.
More than 80 well-known brands won awards, including Cetaphil, Lang Bragman, VitaHealth, Ensure, PediaSure, CeraVe, Kordel’s, Eurobio, Buds Organics, Sensodyne, and La’Miux, highlighting both customer trust and strong product performance.
The evening’s biggest highlight was Blackmores taking home the Brand of the Year recognition. Sharing the brand’s vision during the awards, Chong Kim Heng, Country Manager of Blackmores Malaysia, said Blackmores’ mission is to connect one billion people around the world to the healing power of nature through its Australian heritage. He added that, in today’s ageing society, the brand continues to promote longevity, beauty and healthier ageing, with approximately 55 Blackmores products currently available in the local retail market.
Organising Chairperson of the Malaysia Health & Beauty Awards Wong Siew Lai said, “What stands out from the awards is how clearly it reflects real consumer behaviour, real product confidence, and the growing importance of trust in today’s health and beauty landscape. Malaysians today are more discerning, and they are choosing products that deliver consistent results, not just those driven by trends.
“By bringing together consumer choice, market performance and expert evaluation into one platform, the awards offer a broader perspective on the products and brands Malaysians genuinely trust and continue to choose in their daily lives ”
Lee Meng Chuan, Group Managing Director cum Group CEO of BIG CARING Group, said, “As consumers become more invested in their overall wellbeing, there is also a growing emphasis on quality, credibility and trusted products that deliver long-term value.
