Despite the cultural ubiquity of brat green and burgundy, Mocha Mousse is Pantone’s color of the year for 2025
Mocha mousse, a milky espresso shade described as a “warming, brown hue imbued with richness,” is a timeless color that combines subtlety and elegance, making it a staple for anyone looking to enhance their makeup collection. This hue effortlessly integrates into your beauty routine with products that deliver a polished yet natural finish with a soft, cozy warmth. Because it is a versatile shade that sits comfortably between soft brown and muted taupe, reminiscent of rich coffee and cocoa tones, it’s a sophisticated, lush, and neutral shade that complements a wide range of skin tones. For those seeking an understated elegance or a base to build upon with more vibrant accents, here are some products to incorporate into your beauty rotation to start 2025 a little sweeter.

Eyeshadow
Mocha mousse can be used as an all-over lid color for a subtle, natural look, or in the crease for soft definition. For added dimension, pair it with shimmer shades like champagne or bronze.
This Diorshow Mono Couleur Eyeshadow in “Poncho” warms up the eyes beautifully. Meanwhile, Kiko Milano’s Lasting Mousse Eyeshadow in “Dark Bronze” works from day to night—whether you’re on the way to a coffee meeting or cocktail hour. Fenty Beauty’s Shadowstix Longwear Eyeshadow “In Big Truffle” formula, meanwhile, has the ability to be both smoldering and sultry or natural and subtle.
Brows
Mocha mousse’s soft, neutral brown tone mimics the natural color of many eyebrows. It enhances brow definition without appearing harsh, making it ideal for creating a polished, everyday look. Morphe’s Brow Cream in “Mocha” can fill and shape the brows for a well-groomed appearance—whether you’re going for soft strokes or full-force arches. For a soft, buildable texture that adds warmth and richness, Jill Stuart’s Mousse Eyebrow Mascara is your best bet. Finally, Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade in “Chocolate” provides a long-lasting formula to define and fill the eyebrows.
Lips
A mocha mousse lipstick or gloss gives a 90s chic vibe, perfect as a grounding neutral with a bold eye or for everyday wear with depth and polish. The richness of the hue gives an elegant touch and harmonizes effortlessly with other products, ideal for creating cohesive and balanced looks.
Issy’s Mousse Lip Tint in “Espresso” is a creamy formula that glides on smoothly, providing a matte color and a luxurious texture. Anastasia Beverly Hills Lip Velvet in “Chestnut” offers a true-matte finish with rich, full-pigment color, perfect for achieving the sophisticated mocha look. Consider NYX’s Smooth Whip Blurring Matte Liquid Lipstick in “Latte Foam” for a velvety, weightless formula and rich pigmentation, making it versatile for everyday use.
Contour
The warm undertone of this shade makes it a great option for a subtle contour, especially on fair to medium skin tones. Its balance of warmth and depth works well to frame the face without clashing with other makeup elements. Fenty Beauty’s Match Stix Matte Contour Skinstick in “Suedish,” “Mocha,” or “Espresso” is perfect for seamless blending and targeted contouring. A deep cocoa shade like Huda Beauty’s Tantour Contour & Bronzer Cream in “Tan” defines your features and combines a balance of shadow and warmth for a luminous, matte glow.
Blush
Mocha mousse brings a soft, earthy warmth to the cheeks, mimicking the natural hues of a sun-kissed complexion. Huda Beauty’s Soft Glow Liquid Blush in “Coco-Loco” offers a creamy mousse texture that blends smoothly, mimicking the warmth of mocha shades. Glossier’s Cloud Paint in “Drift” is easy to wear and apply, and sheer enough to blend and layer without going overboard. Finally, Benefit Cosmetics’ Java Rosy Mocha Blush will provide you a soft yet sophisticated look; its rich, mocha-inspired tone adds a rosy, deep warmth to your cheeks.
Nails
Complete the mocha mousse in your beauty routine by extending it to your nails—the hue is ideal for those who want something understated but chic. As a versatile shade, mocha mousse can be easily paired with any outfit and makeup look—create a balanced, elegant style without feeling too bold or too muted.
A sweet candy-brown nail polish, OPI’s Nail Lacquer in Chocolate Moose evokes a sense of warmth and natural elegance, a reflection of your down-to-earth personality. Consider the Tenten Mocha Brown Nail Polish as well, a soft, suede-like brown shade that lies between beige and khaki. For a darker, brownish red with a mocha undertone, this polish from Essie gives a glossy, rich finish to your nails.
