Embrace the strength of the heroes with four natural-toned lip glosses, each capturing the essence of a beloved character: Eren's unwavering courage in a brick red, Mikasa's fierce loyalty in a fiery red, Levi's icy precision in an almond pink with silver shimmers, and Armin's strategic brilliance in a peachy nude with golden shimmers.

"I'm honored to be able to work with Kodansha, and to create our first volume of AoT makeup collection. Attack on Titan isn't just an anime, it's a journey through a mind-bending world, unforgettable characters, and choices that still resonate years later. We're excited to share with each one of you our interpretation of AoT season 1 using the power of makeup." says Game Beauty Founder & CEO, Jamie Battista.
Since Game Beauty's inception in 2020, Founder & CEO Jamie Battista has always sought to partner with video game and anime companies that might be interested in licensing their IPs to makeup brands. With the heroic series of Attack on Titan reaching its momentous conclusion, Game Beauty reached out Kodansha, seeking to add our own resonance to the story. From there, the idea of an Attack on Titan x Game Beauty makeup collection was born.

About Attack on Titan:
A world that is at the mercy of Titans...
Finding themselves now food for the Titans, humanity built a giant 50-meter wall in order to protect themselves, giving up the freedom to go beyond the wall.
Eren Jaeger is a ten-year-old boy who dreams of the world outside the wall that he has yet to see.
He feels that something is wrong with the fact that people are satisfied with this temporary peace and have given up on the outside world.
He calls them "cattle."
They see Eren as "abnormal and wrong."
However, with the appearance of a Colossal Titan that was even taller than the wall, Eren's "dream" and the people's "peace" suddenly fall to pieces.
