Maybe its just me but this is nothing new.I have been using this since I literally became interested in makeup. The color looks great on fair / pale skin.

But back to topic clinique has had "marsala" makeup for years now and by years I mean probably over 10 years.They always had a marsala tone blush I know this because its my favorite blush and I have been wearing it for years so I guess you could say people are calling it the color of the year because of me because I have been rocking that shit for decades now lol.

Did you really have to be misogynistic and slut shame? Seriously? "I don't care for the Kardashian/Jenner clan and what they do/how they present themselves," would have sufficed. (I'm not their biggest fans myself, for other reasons that have nothing to do with looks or choosing to post nude photos of themselves online, but come on.) edit: As for the colour? I'm pretty sure I had a lipstick in a similar colour eighteen years ago.

Wowza. The Pantone web site has actually crashed due to volume.

I personally like the fact that this is a more neutral choice, although it obviously isn't quite as punchy as the last few years. I'm a huge fan of wine and purple shades, especially when mixed with a little brown, so I look forward to seeing how this affects makeup in the coming year. I find that the last couple of choices of colour of the year have appeared first in clothing collections and later in makeup, but perhaps that's just me.

Sephora just came out with marsala makeup tones as you can see kylie wears a wine color it is different from this tone its not as dramatic / gothic looking plus hers is almost a nude color this is more berry .I prefer marsala for blush but the eyeshadow looks nice as well on here.Her version of marsala is actually totally different in terms of the shade pantone released above known as marsala I prefer pantones take on the color .Actually kylie isnt wearing marsala in any of her selfie pics lol.She is wearing a tone some people refer to as marsala online because they probably dont know these are actually two different shades entirely .Plus people with dark / medium skin tones DO NOT look good with marsala makeup its meant for people with fair / lighter skin you can tell just by looking at the color that tanned people would look bad with it on .Kylie's olive skin tone is not meant for that shade of makeup its more noticeable on fair skin tones .

I love that last image, but I'm not crazy about the choices for fair skin. They seem too bright and/ or too pink to fit my idea of "marsala". I think there are definitely versions of the shade that would suit people who aren't comfortable wearing more intense colours, but something more like soft red plums. I've been checking through my stash and I'm kind of surprised that I don't have a lot of these tones.

TIME TO GO SHOPPING.

Do you have Rusty (Huggable), Katred? That one fits perfectly imo and it's one of my most loved reds. My version of Stratus MB also comes quite close.

When I think of the color I think of it include a component of brown...yes, a red brown not too unlike Chanel's Foudroyante lipstick...I'm obsessed with it and Audace, the
Chanel lipgloss that I consider to be Foudroyante's ideal partner.

I looked it up and it's pretty. Interestingly, it too is described as a
"deep Auburn"....."a darkened, warm red with a slight hint of brown."

I'll stop when you do!

They do have marsala nail polish and clothes but its not my style .I'am a model too but I dont like that color for clothing on me personally.It is like a wine tone.I like to wear more warm pinks and like scarlet reds when it comes to that spectrum of colors.It is like a red wine color almost.I dont like wine either so maybe thats why.

I don't have it. I'll have to hope for a repromote. I was thinking that Mac Brickola might fit the bill. Or Nars Leslie for a darker shade.

In a lot of the ad pics I'm seeing of it, it is a great neutral. I can see a marsala shirt, print skirt, and bone shoes. It's such a sexy grown up color. Marsala hair color anyone?

This is starting to grow on me :sigh:
At first, I was thinking "Oh no, Kylie Jenner" but it's actually not. It's more of a browny/ox blood color, at least from the Sephora picture. I think it would look gorgeous on everyone. I'm ready for the blushes to start rolling out!! :stars:

I like the color...and that's what it's about...not a person. I agree....I'd like to see more products representative of the color. I was looking through my wardrobe and
found a couple of tops that would work just great. Have to check the makeup next. Sephora did highlight some products to represent the color.
