NYX Hopes to Strike It Rich in Las Vegas

NYX Professional Makeup will open its newest store on May 19 at the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. It is the first in Las Vegas and the 32nd freestanding store in the U.S. for L’Oréal-owned brand. As has become customary for NYX store openings, shoppers are expected to line up well before the doors open to score special deals. YouTube and Instagram personalities such as Alyssa Edwards and Nikita Dragun are slated to attend, along with NYX Professional Makeup executives. There will be a grand opening Influencer Party at XS Nightclub to get social networks buzzing at #NyxCosmeticsMiracleMile. The opening will feature a photo booth, Express Lip Touch-Ups, a Henna artist, a train case illustrator and a Drybar Braid Bar. The NYX stores have become known for fusing technology and innovative merchandise. The Las Vegas door will offer an interactive beauty bar featuring exclusive in-store tutorials as well as a Shadow Bar and Lip Bar. Industry sources estimate NYX units pump out more than $1,000 per square foot. NYX is undergoing meteoric growth, not only in its own stores, but also with distribution with new retail partners including Walgreens Boots Alliance and Macy’s Inc.
