Beauty New York will host its inaugural consumer experience at the Shops at the Oculus inside Westfield World Trade Center on October 17-18.

“New York has always been a global leader in beauty and deserves a moment to call its own,” said Liza Rapay, founder of Beauty New York. “This event is our love letter to the industry, the city, and the consumers driving it forward.”
