Unforgettable New York Nights: The Cosmo x NYX Speakeasy
If there’s one highlight from the holiday season, it’s the magic of quintessential New York nights. Between memorable dinners and other celebratory events, the latest addition to this year’s festivities is the highly anticipated Cosmo x NYX Professional Makeup Speakeasy. Hosted by Cosmopolitan’s beauty editor-at-large, Julee Wilson, this event took place on November 19th at the elegant Django jazz club, turning it into a secret burlesque haven to celebrate NYX’s new Lip Lingerie Liner Stain.
The Exclusive Experience
In true speakeasy style, admission was granted only to those who knew the secret password (which has already sneakily made an appearance in our article). Guests were enveloped in velvet drapes upon entering, greeted with signature cocktails inspired by the new Lip Lingerie Liner Stain. These lavish drinks not only featured themed stirrers but were adorned with chocolate detailing, adding an exquisite touch to the evening.
Interactive Glam Stations
The event didn’t stop at unique cocktails; it also featured perfectly lit glam stations where attendees could try out the new lip liner for themselves. This hands-on experience allowed guests to immerse themselves in the latest beauty trends, showcasing the artistic versatility of NYX products.
Burlesque Performances
The night was brought to life by a dazzling array of performances from talented burlesque dancers Bryona Ashly, Media Noche, and Audrey Love. Their shows ignited the spirit of entertainment, allowing everyone to live out their wildest fantasies—think of it as a modern homage to the iconic Burlesque soundtrack, which surely found its way into many Spotify Wrapped lists.
Delicious Treats and Unique Keepsakes
As if the evening couldn’t become more delightful, guests enjoyed lip-shaped cookies perfectly colored to match the new lip products. The creative touch didn’t end there; attendees left the soirée with distinct keepsakes like polaroids captured by celebrity-favorite photographer Paris Mumpower and fun lip liner portraits illustrated by Mira Mariah, who is also known for inking Ariana Grande’s tattoos.
