Hex color #f00e45 graphic
#f00e45 is a loud, saturated red with a strong pink lean, closer to raspberry than fire truck. That intensity makes it a natural accent: buttons, sale banners, and calls to action, rather than a full background that tires the eye. It looks richer against deep navy than against plain white. The hex code #f00e45 also carries enough contrast for black body text at about 4.9:1.
