This release dresses the UV Protecting Powder in the brand’s signature whimsical charm and fresh, unique design language.

The compact features a rosy powder illustrated with founder Sophie Mechaly’s cats, Gypsy and Nounette, wandering through Place Vendôme, paired with a vivid green pouch that shows the square from above. Packaged together, the set feels like a chic, thoughtful gift for Mother’s Day or any special May occasion.

Formulated with SPF50+ PA++++, the powder delivers strong sun protection while a soft-focus effect gently blurs imperfections for a naturally even finish. Ultra-fine powder particles create a velvety matte texture that helps keep makeup looking fresh and intact throughout the day.

This Parisian-inspired limited edition will debut early on SSG.com on May 4, then roll out sequentially on Lotte ON, KakaoTalk Gifts, and the Naver Brand Store.
