A device for supporting at least one cosmetic article, and its method of use, including a base, and a body mounted to be movable in rotation about an axis of rotation relative to the base between a retracted position and a deployed position. An articulation assembly including a pivot is fixedly joined to the body and a sleeve for receiving the pivot is fixedly joined to the base. The pivot is mounted to rotate about the axis of rotation in the sleeve. The articulation assembly includes at least one resilient lug fixedly joined to a first of the sleeve or the pivot. The resilient lug is arranged in the intermediate space and has a free end which is pressed against the pivot and is resiliently deformed over at least a portion of the path of the body between the retracted position and the deployed position thereof.
