About this color

Blush sits at 340° on the color wheel with 44% saturation and 50% lightness, placing it in the magenta-red segment of the spectrum. The moderate 44% saturation gives it enough color presence to register clearly without competing for dominance in a composition. Its mid-range lightness positions it as a mid-tone: neither a background color nor a deep accent, but something in between.

In digital environments, Blush is rendered as rgb(184, 71, 109), where the red channel dominates at 184, creating a strongly red-skewed appearance. This warm mid-tone carries enough energy to serve as an accent without the intensity of a highly saturated warm color.

For print, Blush translates to a CMYK breakdown of 0C 61M 41Y 28K. With a moderate key (28%), this color uses black to deepen the chromatic channels rather than replace them, a profile that typically holds up well in both offset and digital print.
