An Afternoon of Beauty, Friendship, and Community
Style & Society Magazine, founded by Kinya Claiborne, welcomed creators, tastemakers, and members of the Los Angeles lifestyle community to an intimate Galentine’s Day celebration hosted in partnership with Pixi Beauty at the Pixi Beauty Boutique inside Westfield Century City. The invitation-only gathering created a warm and stylish atmosphere centered on connection, self-expression, and shared experiences. Designed as more than a traditional event, the celebration reflected Style & Society Magazine’s signature approach to experiential storytelling, where beauty discovery meets meaningful social interaction. Guests enjoyed curated cocktails, engaging conversations, and interactive beauty moments while exploring Pixi Beauty’s glow-focused skincare and makeup collections, widely known for their radiant finishes and skin-loving formulations. A coordinated “Pretty in Pink” dress code added a playful yet elegant visual theme, transforming the boutique into a cohesive and camera-ready environment that perfectly captured the spirit of Galentine’s Day.
Experiential Storytelling Through Beauty and Lifestyle
The event highlighted Style & Society Magazine’s commitment to blending editorial storytelling with immersive experiences that bring audiences together in authentic ways. Rather than focusing solely on product promotion, the afternoon emphasized community-building through shared discovery and conversation. Guests were encouraged to explore Pixi Beauty’s bestselling glow essentials through hands-on demonstrations, allowing attendees to experience the textures, finishes, and benefits of the products firsthand. This interactive approach reinforced how modern beauty events are evolving into lifestyle-driven experiences where personal connection and storytelling play just as important a role as the products themselves.
Thoughtfully Curated Gifting Experiences
A carefully curated gifting experience served as one of the event’s most memorable highlights, reinforcing the celebration’s message of intention and appreciation. Attendees received meaningful love bracelets from My Saint My Hero, a brand recognized for jewelry designed to inspire positivity, faith, and connection. Pixi Beauty gifted a selection of its most loved makeup and skincare products, allowing guests to continue their glow-focused experience beyond the event. Completing the gifting lineup, CALPAK provided stylish, travel-ready cosmetic cases that aligned seamlessly with Style & Society Magazine’s modern lifestyle and travel-forward audience. Each gift reflected the event’s broader theme of self-care, empowerment, and thoughtful living.
A Vision Led by Kinya Claiborne
“Galentine’s Day is about celebrating community, friendship and self-expression,” shared Kinya Claiborne, founder and editor-in-chief of Style & Society Magazine. She emphasized that partnering with Pixi Beauty and collaborating with purpose-driven brands such as My Saint My Hero and CALPAK allowed the team to create an experience that felt elevated, intentional, and aligned with the publication’s audience.

The Growing Impact of Experiential Beauty Events
The collaboration between Style & Society Magazine and Pixi Beauty showcased how experiential marketing continues to shape modern beauty and lifestyle culture. By combining immersive brand storytelling with authentic social engagement, the event demonstrated how today’s audiences value connection just as much as product discovery. The Galentine’s Day celebration reflected a broader industry shift toward meaningful interactions, where brands create memorable moments that resonate long after the event concludes. Through thoughtfully designed gatherings like this, Style & Society Magazine continues to position itself at the intersection of fashion, beauty, travel, and culture, fostering spaces where creativity and community thrive together.
