Hex color #ffbfe4 graphic
Soft as strawberry frosting, #ffbfe4 is a pastel magenta with a light, unsaturated glow. Its low saturation keeps the mood gentle, so it suits cosmetics, confectionery, and spring layouts. It works best as a background base with dark type on top, since black text on it reaches about 13.8:1 contrast. Anchor it with deep plum accents, because next to plain white it can wash out.
