As part of the 2020 Licensing International Excellence Awards, seven companies from the U.S., the U.K. and China have been nominated to win the award for best licensed product in the health and beauty aids category.

From entertainment to consumer brands as well as collections in well-known museums, the nominees each have a different quirk that earned them a spot on the nominees list. More than 600 entries were received this year from companies across 22 countries, which were judged by a panel of 152 executives to create the nominees list.

 

The following are the nominees for best licensed product in the health and beauty aids category:
