Every year, Pantone releases their “Pantone Color of the Year” that will sum up the year ahead. The brand works with color analysts to choose a color based on trend data that we will likely be seeing a lot of. You’ll see this color in graphic designs for marketing advertisements and interior design for homes, and you’ll also see it trickle into the beauty world as a trending color for packaging, merch, nail polish, and makeup looks.

Want to get a head start on integrating some Pantone Color of the Year 2024 items into your makeup routine and lifestyle? Look no further—we break down the new color for 2024, “Peach Fuzz,” as we aim to bring comfort and warmth to our lives in the new year. Plus, discover all the trending ways you can accessorize with this color, no matter the season. 

Experience the Peach Fuzz Trend

Us beauty lovers are lucky. This year’s color is named after that soft hair on our faces that we sometimes elect to dermaplane away. It kind of feels special, like the color of the year was specifically made for us beauty-obsessed individuals to play around with. Run one quick search of “Peach Fuzz” on social media, and you’ll find tons of ways to integrate this trending color into your daily life and makeup self-expression. Shop the shade our favorite ways below! 

Peach Nails

Want a true peach fuzz-inspired nail? Freedom of Peach by OPI is perfect. There are definitely different interpretations of peach out there, with some more subtle as a neutral undertone of a color and some that lean more coral. But we especially love this one, as we think it's a good mix of not-too-coral and not-too-poppy while also having enough color to make a statement.

ESSIE Snooze In

Snooze In is more of a rosy peach, making it ideal for all skin tones as it isn’t too light. If you’re on the fence about trying peach fuzz-inspired manicure, start here, as the peach tone leans a little more pink in this formula.

Peach Eyeshadow

If there’s one thing we love (and constantly use), it’s a peach or coral-colored eyeshadow. We love to have items in our makeup bags that pop, and most often you’ll find peach makeup products have subtle golden undertones. That neutrality is what makes the color peach look great on all skin tones. This M·A·C eyeshadow formula can’t be beat and will be a staple in your routine this year.

JILLIAN DEMPSEY Lid Tint in Lilac

Yes, in “Lilac”! The “Peach” shade in this collection isn’t quite what we’re looking for, as it’s a bit darker than the trending peach fuzz color. We love these Lid Tints as they’re described as “no rules” makeup, and we co-sign this—we like to apply them with our fingers and gradually build up the pigment. 

FENTY BEAUTY Snap Shadows Mix & Match Eyeshadow Palette in Peach

Need something peach fuzz-colored to adorn your vanity? We found it! This brush from TANGLE TEEZER is a great option if you air-dry your hair. But it can also aid in setting your curls to perfection after you style with heat.

Here’s another vanity-worthy item. The DAE mist is ideal for hair that both experiences heat but also needs a hold. It won’t make your hair crunchy like thick-hold hair spray can tend to do, and it smells amazing. We like to spray it both before and after heat styling.
