pinklilac

Pinklilac is an informal color descriptor used to describe a pale, cool-toned shade that blends pink with lilac. It is not a standardized color name in major color systems such as Pantone, RGB, or CMYK, and its exact appearance varies by source and display. In practice, pinklilac refers to a pastel hue that sits between pink and lavender on the color spectrum.

The shade is often produced by lightening a pink with blue-leaning purple or by mixing a soft pink with a touch of lilac. Depending on the proportions, pinklilac can read more pink, more lavender, or more muted and grayish. It is commonly used in fashion, interior design, and cosmetics to convey softness, whimsy, or a feminine aesthetic.

In design palettes, pinklilac is frequently paired with white, cream, or mint for spring or romantic looks. Its perceived mood tends toward calmness and gentleness, but the pale tone can present accessibility challenges when used for text on light backgrounds.

Because it is an informal term rather than a fixed swatch, pinklilac overlaps with related colors such as pink, lilac, lavender, and mauve, and its meaning may vary between brands and regions.
