About TOP3

The BeautyQA™ TOP3 presents the best beauty products in the market. We maintain databases of beauty and personal care products of various classes. Data tables are reviewed, edited, and updated regularly. Products are assigned a ranking based on a proprietary rating system that combines percentages of three major criteria:
  1. Mass User Surveys-User reviews are essential because everyday people use these products and can be experts at what they do or do not desire in a product. Reviews are performed by both BeautyQA users and through other independent online survey services. Hence, we do our best to acquire a vast amount of data from consumer reviews.
  2. Consistently Top-Selling Items-Products with consistently high national sales are more likely to have a good balance of product quality at a reasonable price because people are willing to spend the dollars in a way that is less likely to be a fad.
  3. Professional Reviews-Product reviews include beauty awards and ratings by magazines and trade organizations that are prominent in the beauty and personal care industry.
We believe our unique rating system identifies the top beauty and personal care products that you should buy. On the other hand, we do not identify nor cast away the poor product performers because we believe that any maker of these products deserves a chance to improve their quality. We are not in the business of tarnishing the reputation of others. But we are in the business of encouraging the movement toward more effective beauty and personal care products. In general, we hope that you become a smarter and less wasteful shopper by referencing our TOP3 database regularly.
