I’m so happy to see this gorgeous vibrant dusty mauve-y fuchsia meets lilacs shade as the new Color of the Year; it’s so perfect for just about any season! Even though I’m not crazy about using it as an eye shadow or an eyeliner, both of which we are undoubtedly going to see a lot of in the upcoming months, I can’t wait to sport it on my lips, cheeks, nails and maybe even pick up some clothes and accessories to go along with the trend.
So, without further ado, meet Radiant Orchid!
“Sephora + Pantone reveal the highly anticipated Color of the Year. This just in: the Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year 2014 is Radiant Orchid, a versatile flush for eyes, lips, cheeks, and nails. This universal shade is inimitable in its ability to complement all complexions. How ever you wish to wear it—from saturated to sheer—Radiant Orchid will delight. Coming Spring 2014.”
Here are some gorgeous products to get you started:
- Obsessive Complulsive Cosmetics Lip Tar in Hoochie
- NARS Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Never Say Never
- YSL Rouge Pur Couture Glossy Stain in Violine Out Of Control
- Sephora Collection Glossy Gloss in Candy Ribbon
- Illamasqua Nail Varnish in Grab
- Avasiare Radiant Glow Blush in Wild Orchid
- … and more in the upcoming months!
What are you thoughts about this color? Do you have anything like this in your stash?
AW YEAH! I love this color! I don’t really like greens, so Emerald didn’t do much for me. But this…this is prettyful!
“AW YEAH!” my words exactly when I got the email! I think a lot of us here are excited about this color 🙂
I’ve never worn a color like this, but I know I’ll wear a nail polish in this shade! So Pretty!!
Nail polishes are probably going to be the most wearable products in this color 🙂 Oh, and blushes, of course!
Oh yeah, loving it! I can’t wait to rock this on my nails!
You and me both, Martha 🙂 It’s not even Christmas and I’m already excited for Spring. Am I crazy or am I crazy?
RE: nail colours, Illamasqua’s Velocity is much closer to Radiant Orchid than Grab.
Thanks for pointing that out, Elizabeth 🙂
my mom has always loved colors like this, I actually kinda like what you’ve got here too
Looks like your mom is going to be super trendy next year 🙂 You should totally borrow some goodies from her stash.
Woooo!!! 😀
Aw yeah!!
I had a sneaking suspicion they were going to do some shade of purple this time around. I’m definitely excited to see this color for lips and nails!
Nice guess! I was actually thinking about some sort of a lilac color, or maybe even rose gold-inspired shade, but it’s nice to see a pink for a change 🙂
I love this color palette.
I’m with you, I think it’s gorgeous 🙂
