opal pink, alluring pink Explanation: Hi Shannon, I thought of "alluring pink" first, and then as I read further I thought you are looking for a word or a phrase to go with the other descriptors, hence "opal" -- not my birthstone, 残念. Or, rose pink, "kiss me" pink etc, something arresting, with a touch of of seduction and temptation. Because they are blush colors, I'm not so sure if they are lustrous or sparkling, but who knows! |
