Notes
Fuchsia 600 lives in the same band Glossier picked for the original You bottle in 2017 - saturated, slightly cool, the kind of digital pink that reads as adult rather than as Barbie. The Tailwind hex is one notch deeper than the headline 500 stop, which pushes it across the body-text contrast threshold against white. Music-streaming services and cosmetics brands use tones near this hex when they want a pink adults will use in public. A deep slate handles type-heavy layouts; a single chartreuse accent gives the postcard-shop palette. Body text against white passes AA at body sizes.
