The 2017 BeautyNZ Association Awards will be held in Wellington at Te Papa Tongarewa on September 23. The awards will feature all the glitz and glamour of a Hollywood movie premiere; expect a night of indulgence, a red carpet and entertainment. Prizes, trophies and recognition are all up for grabs.

The awards are held every two years and this year The New Zealand Association of Registered Beauty Professionals (NZARBP) will present the awards. This year's winners will be the first to be inducted into the Beauty NZ Hall of Fame, setting the standard for others to follow.

Applications close today and finalists will be announced 30th June.
