Over 400 guests attended Tuesday night at The Plaza honoring 50+ years of skincare with Mario Badescu, and their long-standing relationship with Martha. Joey Cabasso, President of Mario Badescu, read a heartfelt message from Martha to guests in her absence:
“I have been a customer of Mario Badescu since the 1960s when Mr. Badescu was still alive and creating his magical products. When Mario died the business was taken over by his 2nd in command Mr. Genesco and I continued to avail myself of all of the wonderful services – facials, massages, waxings, manicures and pedicures. I have always stocked my guest rooms, as well as my own bathrooms, with everything Mario. The Cabasso family has elevated and expanded the Mario Badescu brand into new territory. One can now purchase products in department stores, beauty shops, mass market makeup retailers and even on QVC. I continue to visit the 52nd Street Spa where I have all of my special treatments. Thank you so much for years and years of wonderful service for me, my family and my friends.“ – Martha Stewart
Guests including Real Housewives Leah McSweeney, Kelly Bensimon and Margaret Joseph, Love Island’s Melinda Berry, Bachelor alum Peter Weber and Pieper James and Disney star Sky Katz were just a few people that attended.
