Opulent Lime
High energy neon with serious luminosity
Opulent Lime is a high-energy yellow-green with serious luminosity.

Pair this neon shade with deep charcoals or dark navy to create a grounded, modern contrast. It offers excellent legibility for black text, making it a functional choice for bold UI elements.
