2025 SELF Healthy Home Awards: Here’s How Brands Can Submit

It’s important for your physical and mental health that your living space is hygienic and functional. Really, home should feel like a sanctuary—because if your space is not in order, your head usually isn’t, either. That’s why we started SELF’s Healthy Home Awards last year. We love recommending the very best items for your wellness regimen—across beauty, fitness, eating, and more—so it was only natural that we let you in on our favorite things for your abode too.

We were thrilled at the response to last year’s awards and are excited to bring them back for 2025. Below, brands and publicists can learn more about what we’re looking for and how to submit.

How to Submit to the 2025 SELF Healthy Home Awards

Eligibility

1. To be eligible, a product must be available for sale no later than April 1, 2025.
2. Samples must be presently available for testing. If sending samples is a financial hardship for your brand, please note it in your submission form—we can work together to figure something out!
3. We kindly ask that each brand submits no more than five items total.
4. Submissions are free!
5. Below, you can find our list of eligible product categories. If you’re wondering whether a specific product fits into one of them, email hannah_pasternak@condenast.com for guidance.

Our Process and Timeline

All products must be submitted via our online form by December 16, 2024. If we’d like to test your product, we’ll reach out within a few weeks of the submission deadline to arrange samples. To reduce waste, we may not call in items that editors have previously sampled or already have at home.

Please fill out one form per item. If you are submitting a product that’s available in multiple colorways or scents, please only fill out one form and note the varieties available within the submission.
