Pantone’s 2025 Color of the Year was recently announced, and it has confirmed what we’ve known all along: brown is having a moment. “Mocha Mousse” is an indulgent shade of brown that’s more than another trendy color, but a whole vibe that’s perfect to integrate into your beauty routine (if you haven’t already).

What we love about mocha mousse is that it’s a warm, buttery brown that looks good in various ways (on the eyes or lips) and on a wide range of skin tones. The key to nailing this look is finding your perfect shade match and scoping out brown tones that work with your undertone. And the good news is that there are already many options—let’s dive into them ahead.

Shop mocha mousse-inspired products:

Olive and June Sundance Shimmer — $5.00

This luxe, long-lasting formula perfectly embodies the deep, warm hues of mocha mousse. With its rich, warm undertones and gel-like finish, this polish delivers up to 10 days of plump, shiny wear without a lamp. The wide fan brush makes application easy (even when polishing using your non-dominate hand), making your nails a perfect canvas for this year’s most coveted shade.

Rimmel Lasting Finish 8HR Soft Lip Liner Pencil — $6.00

This creamy lip liner (in the shade Cappuccino) glides on without any pull and helps to prevent bleeding and feathering if you’re layering on lipstick on top. It delivers bold color that looks good alone but blends well with other lip products (lipsticks, glosses, and more). If you’re in the market for a new neutral lip combo, this is a good one to keep in your stash.

Nabla Freckle Maker — $20.00

Adding freckles and glitter to your look is a subtle, unique way to stand out. We love Nabla’s Freckle Maker for creating faux spots. This weightless tint is designed to create hyper-realistic freckles and is super easy to use on bare skin or over makeup.

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Nail Color — $9.00

Give your nails the mocha mousse treatment with Sally Hansen’s quick-drying nail polish in the color Beige. This 3-in-1 formula has a contoured brush for easy application, and it dries in just 60 seconds. It’s the perfect shade for everyday wear and also has a quiet luxury vibe that makes it a year-round staple.

Danessa Myricks Beauty Lightwork Palette for Face & Body — $42.00

Danessa Myricks Beauty is known for its super-pigmented products, and this six-piece highlighting palette (in Lightwork 1 for the mocha vibes) is one of our favorites. Infused with micro-light refracting particles, the creamy powder formula adds subtle dimension to the face and body. You can apply the powders over makeup or bare skin for a natural, lit-from-within glow.

Kiss Bare But Better Nails — $11.00

Kiss’s Bare But Better Nude press-on nails are a quick and easy way to wear mocha mousse at your fingertips. These medium-length, almond-shaped nails come with 28 nails, pink gel glue, a mini file, and a manicure stick for a seamless, natural-looking mani that can easily be removed when you want to switch it up. The Neutral shade option is great for getting in on the trend.

Ilia Liquid Powder Eye Shadow Tint — $28.00

This shadow from Ilia transitions from a smooth cream to a creaseless powder in matte and metallic finishes (we recommend the shade Fresco). The water-based formula lets you create subtle or vibrant looks that showcase the trendy brown hue, while horse chestnut flower extract helps smooth delicate eyelids.

Armani Beauty Eye Tint Long-Lasting Liquid Eyeshadow — $38.00

This liquid eyeshadow (in the shades Cold Copper, Shell, or Tobacco) is a perfect neutral that lasts up to 16 hours. The water-infused formula blends well with other shadows (no primer needed!) and is buildable, so you go subtle or bold, depending on your mood. Our favorite part is the doe-foot applicator, which allows you to create precise lines or easily smudge over your entire lid.

Makeup By Mario Ultra Suede Lipstick — $28.00

We love brown lipstick, and this matte option from Makeup By Mario (in the shade Erin) is what we’ll be reaching for when it’s time for a mocha-inspired look. Although it’s matte, the formula dries down to a suede-like finish that doesn’t feel overly dry. It’s a great neutral option for a creamy, coffee-colored lip.

Hourglass Ambient Lighting Infinity Powder — $58.00

A bronzed glow is timeless, and this Hourglass highlighter is a great compact to keep in your makeup bag. The formula includes two ambient lighting powders that are blended together for creamy, glowy color that has a soft-focus finish. It’s the perfect final step in your makeup routine to wake up your face.

Coco and Eve Antioxidant Glow Shimmer Body Oil — $35.00

Stay golden all year round with this fast-absorbing tinted body oil from Coco and Eve. Beyond giving the skin a subtle wash of shimmer, it’s also formulated with squalane and feels super hydrating. The best part? It won’t rub off on your clothing, so your mocha glow stays exactly where you want it.
