Summer in West Hollywood just got a major glow-up! The London West Hollywood at Beverly Hills has partnered with beloved beauty brand Pixi Beauty to create the most Instagram-worthy afternoon tea experience the city has ever seen. As someone who recently got an exclusive sneak peek at this gorgeous new offering, I can confidently say this is the beauty-meets-luxury experience every LA lifestyle enthusiast needs on their calendar.
A Perfect Blend of Beauty and High Tea Culture
Launching Saturday, 7/26 and running throughout the summer, the Pixi Beauty Afternoon Tea represents a brilliant fusion of London’s classic tea service tradition with Pixi’s signature glow-focused beauty philosophy. Available every Saturday and Sunday afternoon, this experience is perfectly designed for mothers and daughters, skincare enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a joyful, beauty-forward outing in one of West Hollywood’s most luxurious settings.
The ambiance and decor during my sneak peek were absolutely fabulous – The London West Hollywood has transformed their space into a beauty lover’s paradise that feels both elegant and playful. The attention to detail in creating an atmosphere that celebrates both traditional afternoon tea culture and modern beauty rituals is truly impressive.
A Menu That Celebrates Flavor and Beauty
The specially crafted menu showcases London Tea Sandwiches that are as beautiful as they are delicious. The Cucumber Mint Tea sandwiches offer a refreshing, classic touch, while pescatarians like myself will absolutely love the Smoked Salmon on Blush Beet Bread – easily one of my favorites from the tasting. Another standout was the Sweet Crab on Toast with Avocado, which delivers that perfect California-meets-London vibe with fresh, high-quality ingredients. For plant-based guests, the Summer Roll with rice paper, lettuce, crisp vegetables and citrus provides a light, refreshing option that’s both beautiful and satisfying. The Citrus-Cured Chicken Salad Tartlets round out the savory selections with bright, zesty flavors that awaken the palate.
Those with a sweet tooth will love the Pixi-worthy 3-tiered dessert stand. Picture colorful Macarons, slices of decadent Madagascar Grand Cru Chocolate Cake, tasty Shortbread Cookies, a slice of the most mouthwatering Rose Water Battenburg Cake, Mini Vanilla-Rose Cupcakes, Raspberry Glow Jellies, and more!
Perhaps most special is the Swedish Princess Cake (available for an additional +$65), inspired by Pixi founder Petra Strand’s Scandinavian heritage. This traditional Swedish dessert brings an authentic cultural element to the experience while honoring the brand’s roots. Every sweet treat perfectly captures the playful yet sophisticated aesthetic that makes Pixi so beloved.
Tea Selection and Champagne Enhancement
The experience offers an impressive array of hot and cold teas to suit every preference, from Lavender Earl Grey to refreshing iced options perfect for LA’s sunny weather. For those seeking an extra touch of celebration, adding a glass of champagne creates the perfect elevated afternoon experience that’s ideal for special occasions or simply treating yourself to something extraordinary.
The TikTok-Friendly Pixi Glow Bar Experience
What truly sets this afternoon tea apart is the innovative Pixi Glow Bar – a TikTok-friendly “glow-up” station that’s perfect for both beauty enthusiasts and content creators. Hosted by professional Pixi makeup artists, this interactive station offers quick touch-ups, personalized foundation matching, and the opportunity to try Pixi’s newest products.
During my visit, the Pixi Glow Bar was absolutely perfect for both touch-ups and exploring their latest product innovations. The makeup artists are incredibly knowledgeable and helpful in finding the right products for your specific needs. Guests can create before-and-after content using special Pixi filters and branded hashtags, with chances to win exciting giveaway prizes. It’s this modern, social media-savvy twist that makes the experience feel distinctly contemporary and engaging.
Rooftop Pixi Cabana Experience for Ultimate Luxury
For those seeking an even more elevated outdoor experience, The London West Hollywood at Beverly Hills offers the exclusive Rooftop Pixi Cabana Experience. This premium option is perfect for hotel guests and private groups looking for a luxurious summer setup with stunning city views.
The cabana comes fully equipped with an ice bucket of chilled Pixi Glow Mists to keep you refreshed, along with tote bags filled with Pixi favorites, including exciting pre-launch SPF products that beauty insiders will absolutely love. The signature cocktail menu features specially crafted drinks like The Pixietini and Glowtini, perfectly complementing the beauty-focused theme while offering sophisticated refreshment.

The London West Hollywood has created something that feels both timeless and thoroughly modern, honoring traditional afternoon tea culture while embracing contemporary beauty and wellness trends.
