About #FFA0CC

The hex code #FFA0CC represents a beautifully specific shade of magenta. If you're using CSS, you might find it aligns closely with Plum. To achieve this exact tint on a monitor, you would use an RGB mix of 255, 160, and 204.

If you are designing for print, the four-color process is what matters most. Its ink density profile breaks down to 0% cyan, 37% magenta, 20% yellow, and 0% black. Always request a physical proof before doing a large print run with this exact code.

Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) dictate how we should use this color. Because it is a very light color, it is generally recommended to use #000000 text. Always test your color combinations using a contrast checker before publishing.
