Think Pink

#E5A5C1

Also known as: Party Time , Prettiest Pink , Pink Gin , Little Princess

Think Pink is a soft, lively pink that reads as playful and warm. It earns its place in romantic branding and children's products. Because it leans warm, balancing it with a green keeps a palette from feeling one-note. Accessibility-wise, it needs a dark backdrop: 10.48:1 on black clears AA.
