The Pantone 2016 Color of the Year shades have been released and they are gorgeous, soft pastels of Rose Quartz and Serenity! The last few years Pantone’s Color of the Year has been rather louder, bolder colors this year they went very soft with touches of light blue and soft rose.

This is actually the first year Pantone has blended two shades versus launching just one. And they go together oh so very well

Rose Quartz (13-520) and Serenity (15-3919) will likely take Spring 2016 Makeup Collections back into the realms of soft, pretty pastels. And let’s be honest, Spring really is the season for pastels right?

These two shades pair up beautifully to create a soft, soothing appearance.

What do you think?

I sadly look horrible in pastels but I’m oh so curious and eager to see Sephora’s 2016 Pantone Universe Color of the Year Collection in the flesh to see if I can pull off any of these colors!
