In this palette the hues fall in the red, orange and cyan families, spread across 186 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Pastel palettes keep chroma between 0.03 and 0.08, and lightness between 80% and 96%, which is why the set feels consistent.

That combination suits baby and children's brands, wedding stationery and spring campaigns, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel light, playful and welcoming.

Under deuteranopia (reduced green sensitivity), #E0B3A5 and #DCC1B5 and #C1DFE6 and #C4EDFD may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning. Under tritanopia (reduced blue sensitivity), #E0B3A5 and #DCC1B5 and #C1DFE6 and #C4EDFD may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #FEEAE4 as the background, #C1DFE6 for cards and surfaces, #C4EDFD as the primary brand color, #DCC1B5 as the accent, and #2A130C for text (a computed darker shade of Dusty Rose, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Give one side of the wheel to the background and structure and the other to calls to action. A small amount of the opposing hue goes a long way.
