2025 Color Trends

So, let’s break down the trending colors of 2025 and which seasons can pull them off:

Cherry Red

There is no question Cherry Red has been on everyone’s minds. This color is dark, rich, and screams decadent. Cherry Red is perfect for Summers and Winters! While we typically associate red tones with Autumns, those red tones are typically warmer like terra cotta or rust. Cherry Red is a much more muted and cooler tone of Red that is perfect for soft complexions and cooler undertones. Summers and Winters should definitely experiment with a cherry red lip in 2025!

Butter Yellow

Butter Yellow is truly on the up and up in 2025 and brands are starting to integrate this color EVERYWHERE. This color is perfect for Springs! It is definitely on the more delicate end of spring colors, but this color is undoubtedly bathed in sunshine and can make the warm undertones of Springs glow. Springs should consider using butter yellow eye shadows as base shades to bring out the warmth and radiance in their eyes.

Rich Purples & Lilacs

Purple is becoming a key player in 2025 and there are no signs of it slowing down. Rich purples and cool toned lilacs are perfect for Winter seasons! These colors can help pull out the icy, cool tones of Winters’ eyes, as well as emphasize the depth and richness of their hair color. These purples are great for Winters’ eyeshadow looks and create bold contrast that will make any Winter shine. Purple blush is also a trend on the rise so keep an eye out for that!

Dill Green

Looking for a little color to bring back your warmth? Dill Green has you covered. Dill Green is perfect for Autumn seasons because the earthy feel can pull out the beautiful warm browns, greens, and golds of Autumn’s eyes. It is the perfect medium green for any Autumn to try. Autumns should experiment with pops of dill green eyeshadow - or even eyeliner to really make their warm eyes pop!

Milky Oat

While simple, Milky Oat is an amazing neutral color to use as any base shade! Milky Oat is perfect for Autumns because as opposed to colder white bases, Milky Oat has notes of warmth and depth that are much more cohesive with the complexion of Autumns. Autumns should switch to using Milky Oat shades for their Eyeshadow base layers or even using it to highlight their inner corner or brow bone.

Mocha Mousse

Pantone has declared their 2025 color of the year to be Mocha Mousse - a rich, warm brown hue reminiscent of chocolate desserts. Mocha Mousse is perfect for Springs and Autumns as its warm undertones pair nicely with the natural warmth of both. This color is perfectly suited for bronzers, contours, and eyeshadows for Springs and Autumns. Mocha Mousse is perfect for accenting that beautiful soft glow. Mocha Mousse on the lips could even be a great idea for these seasons.
