Peachy Keen: Pantone’s Color Of The Year Is Ideal For Makeup, Too

In case you didn’t know, Peach Fuzz was chosen as the Pantone Color of the Year for 2024, and this light and airy hue has now made its way to the runways, not only in fashion but in makeup trends too. A fun nod to the pastels of the 90s, peach is a super versatile colour—it can be soft and muted or used for a bold look too, or it can be classic or modern, minimalist or layered. Look out for these peachy makeup products so you can add some of the colour of the year to our own little world. —Jennifer Cox

REFY’s Cream Blush in Peach ($20) enhances and compliments the natural colour in your cheeks. It is buildable, allowing you to create either a subtle glow or a radiant cheek tint.
