OUR MISSION
CONTRIBUTE TO WOMEN AND GIRLS’ EMPOWERMENT THROUGH SPORT & TO AN ACTIVE LIFESTYLE
It’s our mission to empower women and girls beyond makeup. As a brand committed to empowering women and girls everywhere, we are partnering with the “Global Observatory for Gender Equality & Sport” to collaboratively raise awareness on women empowerment through physical activity. We aim to put inspirational female athletes, coaches, teams from all walks of life into the center and tell their stories to inspire.
