So, if you didn’t know, every year Pantone introduces its color of the year. Mostly in the fashion and beauty industry. We will see these colors being incorporated into makeup and fashion.
The Pantone color of the year 2017 is (drum roll) Greenery. I bet this is amazing if your favorite color is green, you have an excuse to incorporate more of this color into your wardrobe and makeup. When Pantone came out with their 2016 colors, I was excited! Why? Because, In 2016, Pantone introduced two colors “Rose Quartz” and “Serenity.” Serenity is a favorite of mine; it is a sky blue color (my favorite color). “Serenity” represented the connection and wellness as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.
