The New Year is nearly here — and alongside glamorous holiday parties, glittering manicures, and midnight fireworks, many look forward to one announcement in particular.
Each year in December, Pantone releases a color that coincides with the year-to-come’s energy — and 2024’s anticipated pick is finally here.
“Peach Fuzz” Nail Colors
Say hello to Pantone’s color of the year for 2024: “peach fuzz.” Described as a gentle, velvety peach color, the soft shade is representative of healing, nurturing, and belonging in the months to come.
For the beauty lovers of the world who want to embrace 2024’s calming vibes, a peach fuzz nail design is a perfect way to tap the shade.
For DIY manicurists, there are countless polish colors on the market that give some serious peach fuzz vibes on your tips.
The Lights Lacquer Polish in Order Up! ($11) is described as a pastel papaya hue with opaque coverage on the nail, while the DND Gel Polish in Peach Fuzz ($7.50) is a soft baby pink with peachy undertones.
As for a set of press-on nails that can give you the buzzy look in just a few minutes? Static Nails’ Reusable Pop-On Manicure ($20) also comes in a light peachy shade.
