Hex color #cbffab graphic
Reach for pastel lime when a spring campaign, baby product, or energy drink label needs freshness without the sharpness of pure green. Its high lightness and soft saturation read gentle and young, though it can wash out next to plain white. Pair #cbffab with charcoal or deep plum text for contrast; against black type it hits about 18.4:1, well past WCAG AA. The hex code works best as a dominant background with darker accents carrying the detail.
