Hex color #eb258b graphic
Nothing pastel about this one. #eb258b is a saturated hot pink, bold enough to anchor calls to action, cosmetics, and packaging, but loud at full scale, so most designs use it as an accent rather than a base. It flatters deep teal and charcoal. The hex code also passes WCAG AA with black text at about 5.2:1 contrast.
