Pantone’s 2025 Color of the Year, Mocha Mousse (17-1230), is a rich, warm brown that resonates with comfort and indulgence, reminiscent of chocolate and coffee’s soothing embrace. As a symbol of warmth and luxury, this is the perfect shade to incorporate into your bridal makeup for a glowing and on-trend look on your big day.
The Mocha Mousse Bridal Look: A Step-by-Step Guide
Start with skin prep
Great makeup starts with well-prepped skin. Cleanse, tone, moisturize, and apply sunscreen using products suited for your skin type to ensure a smooth and hydrated base.
Apply your base
Use a foundation that matches your skin tone. Blend carefully for a flawless complexion, then set with a light dusting of powder.
Define your eyes
Sweep a rich brown eyeshadow across your lids. Layer lighter and darker brown tones to add depth, finishing with a hint of shimmer on the inner corners. For extra detail, create a soft wing with eyeliner.
Perfect your brows
Enhance your brows naturally with a brow pencil or gel that matches your hair color. Bushy yet defined brows pair beautifully with earthy makeup tones.
Add a pop of blush
Balance the warm eyes with a fresh blush in natural pink or coral tones. This adds a youthful, glowing flush.
Sculpt with contour and bronzer
Contour and warm your face with bronzer for that sun-kissed Mocha Mousse glow.
Pick the perfect lip color
Complement your look with soft mauves or nude pinks. Feeling bold? Go for coral or classic red lips.
Illuminate and accentuate
Apply highlighter on your cheekbones and browbones for a polished finish. Use waterproof mascara or eyelash extensions to define and add volume to your eyes.
Lock it in
Finish with a setting spray to ensure your makeup stays fresh all day.
