How to use them
Use one vivid shade as the accent and keep the rest of the page in neutrals or muted shades, so the accent stays an event rather than the wallpaper.
Standouts in this group
- Darkest: Cloak and Dagger (#550055), at 32% lightness.
- Lightest: Jigglypuff (#FFAAFF), at 85% lightness.
- Most saturated: Magenta (#FF00FF).

What the numbers say
Across all 177 pink shades in the library, lightness runs from 12% to 94%. 42 of them reach 4.5 to 1 on white, so they can be used as text on a light page, and 135 reach 4.5 to 1 on near-black, so they can be used as text on a dark page. The rest are for fills, surfaces and large type, where the requirement is lower. Within the vivid, highly saturated shades the figures are different: 12 of 33 pass on white.
Pairing with other families
The base pink (#EC4899) separates best from beige (2.51:1), yellow (2.14:1) and brown (2.08:1). Because pink stands for care, romance and youth, those pairings carry the most contrast of both color and meaning.
