Colors That Pair Well With Blacklight Mineral
Need a fifth color? These three companions are computed from the palette's own hue positions on the color wheel, so they extend the scheme without breaking its harmony.
directly opposite #FF2ED1 on the wheel — the strongest accent for CTAs and highlights when you need maximum energy
30° beside #FF2ED1 — a calm secondary that extends the palette without adding tension
a ink-black carrying the palette's own hue — perfect for surfaces and dividers
Using Blacklight Mineral Without Breaking Accessibility
- Avoid #FF2ED1 for small UI elements on #2ED9FF — at 1.9:1 it misses the 3:1 WCAG threshold; darken it with a shade from the ramp below.
- Set body text in #080612 — 11.9:1 against #2ED9FF passes WCAG AA (AAA) for long-form reading.
- Don't use #FFE94A behind body text — this light tone works better for surfaces, badges and dividers than for reading areas.
