About this palette

This 5-color pastel palette runs from Snowflake (#F0EFF4) as its lightest tone to Blue Genie (#6B61FF) as its darkest. It blends Clay Dust, Blue Genie, Âbi Blue, Bluebottle and Snowflake into a single set you can drop straight into a UI. None of the 10 in-palette color pairings clear the WCAG AA contrast threshold (4.5:1), so pair these colors with black or white for body text.

Gentle, low-saturation tones — ideal for wedding sites, baby brands, soft hero sections, and editorial layouts that lead with whitespace.
