Color Trend: Gen Z Green
Just like we had Millennial Pink the next generation has Gen Z Green. Gen Z Green is a big rising color trend for Beauty Brands. While many publications have mentioned the rise of Gen Z Green for some time now, there seems to be a lot of confusion about what shade of green were talking about. Gen Z Green is a bold and vibrant shade of fluorescent yellow-green that bursts with energy and optimism.
Gen Z Green is one of the trend colors featured in my new report: Mintoiro Beauty Brand Color Trend Forecast 2024, now available for purchase on my website.
What exact color is Gen Z Green?
The shade sits somewhere between glow in the dark stars yellow and nickelodeon slime green. Any of these three colors would be fair to call Gen Z Green.
