secondary

#ADD8E6 (Light Blue): Excellent for background sections, headers, or informational panels, providing a tranquil contrast.

#FFE4E1 (Blush Pink): Use for delicate highlights, interactive states, or decorative flourishes to add warmth and softness.

#FAFAD2 (Pale Yellow): Serves as a gentle, inviting canvas for main content, offering a subtle warmth without being overpowering.

Accessibility notes

  • All colors are very light; ensure high contrast for text by using dark, legible font colors.
  • Avoid using light text on any of these pastels; opt for charcoal or deep gray for body copy.
  • Test text contrast ratios, especially for smaller font sizes, to meet accessibility standards.
  • For interactive elements, provide clear visual cues for states (hover, focus) that don't solely rely on these subtle color changes.
