Designed to highlight the product’s energizing and revitalizing properties, the evening featured "breakfast-for-dinner bites, espresso martinis, and iridologist readings," creating an experience centered around renewal and indulgence. Guests, including Jordan Chiles, Storm Reid, and Meena Harris, enjoyed a curated menu inspired by morning rituals, reinforcing the eye cream’s coffee-infused formula.
With music by DJ OVO Mark, the intimate setting encouraged conversation around self-care and beauty while mirroring the product’s invigorating effects. Infused with 'Jamaican Blue Mountain Coffee' caffeine, peptides, and hydrating botanicals, the Coffee Fix Peptide Eye Cream embodies wakefulness and rejuvenation, a theme woven throughout the evening’s experience.
