#CFAFB8 Hex Color
Dusty Pink With a Gray Whisper
#cfafb8 is a dusty pink with a clear gray undertone, so it reads soft rather than sweet. Its very low saturation suits a supporting role at 30% of a palette, where it flatters deep plum or charcoal instead of bright white. Black text hits about 10.5:1 contrast against it, so it holds up behind small body copy. The hex code #cfafb8 fits cosmetics, packaging, and muted brand work.
