About this palette

This 5-color pastel palette runs from Aragonite White (#F3F0F5) as its lightest tone to Pink Punk (#DF86BD) as its darkest. It blends Squeaky, Pink Punk, Aragonite White, Pink Heath and Light Washed Blue 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.
