Hince is taking applications through August 26 for a 30-person tester group tied to its Ro Glow Gel Tint Mini Sanrio Characters Edition, a limited kit arriving through Olive Young on August 30, 2026.

The collaboration pairs the brand's gel tint mini format with two Sanrio characters: four "Best" shades built around Pompompurin's cool-light and warm-coral tones, plus two new colors tied to Hangyodong that Hince is calling the edition's standout addition. It's the kind of pairing that gives longtime Sanrio collectors and gel-tint regulars on Olive Young's shelves a reason to check the same rack twice this fall.

Hince's official product page currently says the Ro Glow Gel Tint line has passed 4.45 million units in cumulative sales.

Applicants need to submit Hince's official sign-up form by August 26. The brand's X post says it will contact 30 winners individually on August 28, with a mission window running from August 31 through September 8. Anyone who misses the tester window can still look for the edition through Olive Young when the Sanrio Characters campaign begins on August 30.
