Pantone’s Color of the Year is Mocha Mousse and The Comments About It Are Hysterical
The Pantone Color the Year 2025 is Mocha Mousse (17-1230 TCX) and I thought it was a rather beautiful soft brown. I’ve heard it described as a piece of chocolate mixed with a hot cup of creamy coffee. I think soft muted brown are lovely especially for your home or in our case we’re probably thinking how lovely it would look on our eyes. Not that we don’t already have 10,000 brown eyeshadows already but, well, you can never have too many of those right? Anytime a new Pantone Color of the Year is announced I think back to the days that brands actually cared about creating shades on trend with the color selected. Who remember all the fantastic Sephora Pantone Collections? Shall we take a look at some?
Below are some of the years past that Sephora released Pantone Collections. This was when Sephora cared about the releases in the Sephora Collection. Nowadays, we see far less of the Sephora Collection and what is available in really cheaply made. I dunno what happened to the Sephora Collection! It used to be incredible. The sad part it’s 30% off with code HAVEITALL and aside from some of the makeup brushes I couldn’t find a single item I actually wanted from the collection. There just isn’t a big selection to choose from anymore.
Anyway, I digress let’s talk about how hysterical some of the comments on the Pantone Color of the Year are after news broke that it was Mocha Mousse. I was actually taking this shade pretty seriously but Diet Prada posted some responses to the news on the shade and now I’m questioning everything! Allow me to share a few if don’t follow Diet Prada.
“Looks like cleaning the water from the brush after painting with watercolors at school” I can’t get this out of my head now LOL!
“Love brown but this is a bit grey are they trying to get us ready for the great depression” Ouch!
“Pantone’s Color of the Year is Mocha Mousse. A color that signifies just how much sh*t we’re going to deal with”
“You must mean mouse”
Haha…I guess Mocha Mousse has created quite a stir. I still think it’ll make a beautiful shade of eyeshadow! Sephora, we could use a Pantone Collection! It’s been a while!
What do you think of the Pantone Color of the Year 2025?
