Description
#FEC5DC is a pale pink. It is warm in temperature. It brings to mind cotton candy and peony petals.
Psychology
Pink often feels gentle, affectionate and playful. It has red's warmth without its urgency. In this pale version the effect is gentle and airy, closer to a whisper than a statement.
Meaning
Pink stands for tenderness, romance and sweetness, and in its brightest shades for boldness too.
