Candy Pink
Also known as: Vaporwave, Pink Party, Magenta Stream, Lián Hóng Lotus Pink
Quietly soft and romantic, Candy Pink is a warm-toned pink that earns its keep in beauty and fashion and romantic branding. Match it with green accents when the design calls for energy over calm. Against dark backgrounds it stays legible (8.21:1), but avoid it as text on white.
