#c24c8c is a saturated mulberry pink with enough depth to keep it from reading candy-sweet. Its bright mid-tone makes a strong accent for calls to action, cosmetics, and fashion, and black text sits comfortably on it at about 4.7:1 contrast, clearing AA for body copy. Pair it with deep teal or charcoal for balance, since plain white can wash it out.
