All events open to the public at Milan Beauty Week

Everything is ready for the second edition of Milano Beauty Week, the week dedicated to the culture of beauty and well-being, which this year has innovation, sustainability, inclusion and emotion as its leading themes. From 26 September to 2 October 2023, all make-up, skincare, fragrance and hair care addicts will have the opportunity to discover brands and innovations in the sector by visiting Palazzo Giureconsulti Beauty Village at Via Mercanti 2, the real heart of the event, as well as the new centre at Palazzo Castiglioni at Corso Venezia 47. At these main locations, there will be stands, talks, meetings, interviews, workshops and experiential workshops all about the world of cosmetics. In short, the interesting encounters are numerous. 

Above all, the historic Palazzo Giureconsulti will be transformed into a Beauty Village throughout the week, with beauty experiences, floral and olfactory workshops, corners dedicated to sustainability and beauty talks with experts in the field. Every day, the Palace Loggia will become the Wellness Lodge, a place where you can do yoga, facial yoga, self-massage and other activities such as wine routines, wine tasting and chocolate tasting. Not enough for you? From 28 to 30 September, at Palazzo Castiglioni, you can attend DERMOCOSM, the scientific congress that's all about skin. Of particular note is the Beauty Tram, a historic Milanese tram that will offer make-up expresses and beauty routines at the Piazza Castello, Cantù' and Piazza Fontana stops on all days of the event. Another eagerly awaited moment is Beauty Saturday Night, the white night on 30 September, when the centres stay open until late, with DJ a few steps from the Duomo, on the loggia of Palazzo Giureconsulti and the Beauty Parade.
