How to get the Pantone Color of the Year for your Client’s Nails

01/10/2025

The 2025 Pantone Color of the Year is here, and we’re absolutely in love with Mocha Mousse! This rich and creamy shade perfectly blends the warmth of chocolate with the sophistication of a muted nude, making it a stunning choice for nail art this year. At GlossaryLive, we’re celebrating this luscious color by diving into our vault of shades and selecting three perfect nail colors that capture the essence of Mocha Mousse.

First on our list is VBP #112, a creamy mocha hue that creates a beautiful, smooth finish on the nail. This shade embodies the warmth and depth of Mocha Mousse, making it a versatile option for any nail look, from minimalist chic to intricate nail art.

Next, we have Gelish Cream Gel #108 Brown Nude. This color is a delightful nod to the whipped mousse dessert that inspired Pantone’s choice. Its soft, silky finish adds a touch of elegance to any manicure, and it’s perfect for layering or pairing with metallic accents for a glamorous twist.

Finally, we’ve chosen ASP #138 Taupe To Me. This creamy, glossy milky mocha shade provides the ideal base for any chocolaty nail design. Its rich texture and high-gloss finish make it a standout color that’s both sophisticated and on-trend.

See these gorgeous shades polished out on our social media channels, where we’ve showcased how each one can transform your nails into a celebration of this year’s iconic color. Whether you’re embracing Mocha Mousse with a classic single-color manicure or incorporating it into intricate designs, these shades are your go-to for achieving a sweet nail look in 2025!
