To celebrate the launch of this new line, the Purchase, N.Y.-based company is debuting a campaign that features a reimagined version of Def Leppard’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me,” into a new version titled “Pour Lower Sugar for Me.”

In addition, the brand is working with several TikTok creators to use the newly created song in their own videos that also encourage their followers and other users on the platform to try the brand’s newest launch.
