Sephora + Pantone Universe Pop-Up Color Shop

On March 22nd, I attended the opening of the Sephora + Pantone Universe Pop-Up Color Shop, located north of 14th Street at 9th Avenue in the Meatpacking District, Chelsea Plaza.

The launch celebrates the Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year Collection, centered on Pantone 17-1463 Tangerine Tango. At the Pop-Up Color Shop, consumers can receive one of three different Express Services from a Sephora artist at the Sephora Beauty Studio and learn tips and tricks for wearing this vibrant orange shade.

For my makeup touch-up, I was surprised at how wearable the Tangerine Tango Cream lipstick, Tangerine Tango Vivid lip gloss and Tangerine Tango Twist eyeliner are! Since I had to go back to the office, I didn't want too much of a dramatic look. My look ended up adding a burst of color without overdoing it. I love how this shade looks different and flattering on everyone. Can't wait to try out more from this collection!



Here's a closer look at the Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year Capsule Collection, featuring the coveted Sephora + Pantone Universe Color of the Year Collector's Edition, $68, which includes the Color of the Year eyeliner, eye shadow quad, prisma chrome blush, blush duo, creme lipstick and lip gloss. The capsule collection also includes an eyelash curler, faux lash set, nail polishes, brush sets, makeup bags.

The Pop -Up Color Shop will be open through March 30th, Sun-Wed, 10am-9pm and Thurs-Sat, 10am-10pm. Sephora will have mobile checkout available to purchase the limited edition collection right on site. You can also shop the collection at Sephora stores and Sephora.com.
