Just when you thought we had our color set for the last of the summer nail tech appointments, along comes Selena Gomez and her mocha pink nails. It’s a sweet manicure, without being cloying, and with a natural touch.
According to Pantone, the official color of 2025 has been “Mocha Mousse.” (This followed 2024’s “Peach Fuzz,” and the previous year’s “Viva Magenta”). Mocha Mousse is a soft, warm shade that brings to mind creamy chocolate and coffee, a tone that connects to beauty and fashion’s ongoing love affair with brown. The Rare Beauty founder has long been a fan of elevating the classic and elegant, which is exactly what her latest nail shade—concocted with her nail artist of choice, Tom Bachik—does.
So why not add a few drops of pink to the Mocha Mousse equation? The result is a delicate, minimalist shade, a soft and sweet statement.
The pop star, actor, and beauty mogul wore the manicure for a recent night in L.A. celebrating her first Rare Beauty perfume, Rare Eau de Parfum. The gourmand offering features notes of caramel, vanilla, and sandalwood—“warm with just a touch of spice,” as she so recently told Vogue. She’s leaned into those sweet, delectable tones throughout the promo, on another day, hosting a perfume-themed baking class with fiancé Benny Blanco, where they made pistachio and caramel tiramisu. A similarly deliciously shaded manicure? A textbook Gomez detail.
To go with the nail shade, Gomez wore a shimmering, almost-bridal halter-neck dress by Cult Gaia, combined with a high, polished ponytail by Renato Campora, and a brown smoky eye with a pink-glossed caramel lip by makeup artist Hung Vanngo. Gomez kept her mocha pink nails in the on-trend, round and short shape—a failsafe elegant silhouette, too.
