Brighter than sea glass and cooler than mint, this neon teal practically glows on screen. The hex code #1ed39b is highly saturated and mid-light, which gives it a fresh, jazzy energy. It works best as an accent or supporting tone in a 60/30/10 palette, since a full background can tire the eye. Black text on it hits about 10.8:1 contrast, so body copy stays readable. Pair it with deep navy or charcoal rather than white, which makes it look washed out.
