#AF7595 Hex Color
A Dusty Pink With Muted Charm
#af7595 is a dusty pink with gray undertones, closer to muted mauve than candy. Its low saturation and mid lightness give it a soft, mellow feel, so it works best as a supporting tone rather than the star. Pair it with deep plum or dark teal instead of white to keep it from washing out, and note that black text stays readable on top at about 5.8:1 contrast.
