LYKO X CAFÉ BASKÈTS TAKE-OVER

Passport? Not needed. This November, we escaped to Seoul without leaving the city.

On November 20 and 21, So PR transformed Café Baskèts into the ultimate LYKO K-beauty playground: an immersive two-day experience where skincare, self-care, and community came together in the heart of Amsterdam.

Inspired by the energy and aesthetics of Seoul, the takeover introduced guests to the world of Korean skincare through interactive brand moments, curated beauty experiences, and a playful café setting filled with matcha, sheet masks, and glowing skin.
