About this gradient

This is a linear CSS gradient that blends two colours. The colour transitions diagonally from top-left to bottom-right, moving from Light Red #FAD0C4 at the start to Light Pink #FFD1FF at the end. Both ends sit on the warm side of the spectrum, giving the blend an energetic, sunny feel.

The colours

The gradient is built from Light Red (#FAD0C4), Light Pink (#FFD1FF). Light Red is a light, airy tone — ideal for backgrounds and subtle fills. Light Pink is a light, airy tone — ideal for backgrounds and subtle fills.

Where to use it

This linear gradient suits hero sections, call-to-action buttons, cards and section dividers. Because the colour travels diagonally from top-left to bottom-right, it pairs naturally with content laid out along the same axis, guiding the eye through the design. Use it full-width for impact or as a subtle button background.

Text & accessibility

The colours are close in tone, so this gradient works best as a decorative background rather than behind small text. If you do place text over it, use a solid overlay or pick text colour that clears the 4.5:1 WCAG contrast ratio against the Light Pink end.

Frequently asked questions

How do I use this gradient in CSS?

Copy the linear-gradient(135deg, #FAD0C4 0%, #FFD1FF 100%) value and apply it to any element with the background property, for example: background: linear-gradient(135deg, #FAD0C4 0%, #FFD1FF 100%);

Is this a linear or radial gradient?

It is a linear gradient set at 135 degrees, so the colour transitions along a straight line diagonally from top-left to bottom-right.

Can I change the colours or direction?

Yes. The two hex stops (#FAD0C4 and #FFD1FF) and the angle can be edited directly in the CSS to fine-tune the blend for your own design.
