Why Take Part
The prestigious WLU Business Awards are dedicated to acknowledging those who make a real difference to the lash industry and those who work hard to be the best that they can be.
WLU are proud to be transparent and fair in its awarding of titles and all that goes with it. All entries are anonymised and assessed by judges with proven business acumen. Titles are not awarded based on popular opinion or how well you promote that you have taken part.
To that end, winning is a significant achievement for your business. It can set you apart from others by raising your profile and opening the door to new opportunities.
To Enter
Anyone in the Lash (Extension) Industry (worldwide) can enter.
You don’t have to attend our events to take part.

All entries must be using the prescribed forms only.
Send completed applications to info@worldlashuniversity.com by 11.59pm (BST) on Saturday 7th October 2023. Late entries will not be accepted.
All entries are objectively assessed by a panel of expert judges. Your answers to questions can earn up to 10 points each. The entry with the highest score wins!
Note: You will not be asked to beg for votes to win. That’s a popularity contest and NOT an assessment of your entry. We believe in fairness.
