Magenta Pink

Magenta pink, a vivacious combination of red and blue, is actually one of the three true primary colors. Interestingly, certain flowers evolved to use this color to attract insects. In astronomy, some of the stars of the brown dwarf type shine with magenta light. Because of its eye-catching effect, it has long been a favorite of both commercial and fine artists, and now web designers are using it, as well. It is pretty and feminine, yet it also speaks of sexuality and strength. Use this color in the bedroom for a powerful effect. It pairs beautifully with soft pink shades and warm metallics, such as bronze, copper, and gold. Touches of rich chocolate brown will ground this hue. Magenta pink can move into the living room with careful accessorizing. Introduce this hue in rooms other than the bedroom in small amounts, such as a chair or pillows. A powerful fashion shade, this color makes a strong statement in smaller doses, such as shoes, hats, bags, and lipstick. Don an evening dress in this hue and all eyes will be on you.
