Vietnamese beauties shine in the international arena in 2018
Phuong Khanh was crowned Miss Earth, while H'Hen Nie was in the Top 5 Miss Universe.
The 2018 beauty pageant season ended with the Miss Universe final in Thailand on the morning of December 17. H'Hen Nie entered the Top 5 - the highest achievement of Vietnam in this contest. Before that, the best achievement was Thuy Lam with the position of Top 15 in the contest held in Nha Trang 10 years ago.
Not only did H'Hen Niê leave her mark throughout the competition, she also won the hearts of foreign audiences. Many beauty sites assessed that H'Hen Niê's success would be a stepping stone for many Vietnamese contestants to continue to develop.

Not only in the Miss Universe arena, last year Vietnamese representatives at major competitions also left their mark.The most resounding success belonged to Nguyen Phuong Khanh at Miss Earth. On the night of November 3, she surpassed 86 contestants from countries and territories to be crowned. This is the first Miss title that Vietnam has achieved in the system of the six largest beauty pageants in the world.
Despite rumors of buying the award or having plastic surgery, Phuong Khanh still received great support from international audiences. Phuong Khanh's representative denied the rumors and affirmed that she won thanks to her own efforts.

Minh Tu entered the Top 10 of Miss Supranational and won the Miss Supranational Asia title. This is a regrettable result because from the very beginning, Minh Tu was considered the number one candidate for the title. She always showed confidence, shined and attracted the media in the activities of the contest. Beauty pageMissosologyrecognized Minh Tu's efforts with the "Missosologists Choice" award.

At Miss World, Tran Tieu Vy also achieved a better ranking than expected. She was one of five contestants who won the "Beauty with a Purpose" award and entered the Top 30. At Miss Grand International, Bui Phuong Nga was in the Top 10 thanks to the audience's votes. In the 2017 contest in Vietnam, Tran Huyen My also entered the Top 10.
The only beauty who did not make it to the top was Nguyen Thuc Thuy Tien at Miss International 2018. She prepared for the competition too hastily because she had to replace runner-up Thuy An. However, Thuy Tien was judged to have performed well and attractively in the Miss International final.
With bright faces and outstanding achievements, Vietnam's position on the beauty map is expected to change when the websites summarize this year. Last year, Vietnam was in the Top 20 "beauty countries", judged according to the achievements of the contestants.
