What color is Peach?
Peach is a soft, warm color with a pale orange tone and a slight pink flush, hex #FFD3AC, close to the skin of a ripe peach fruit. The color is light and muted, with enough warmth to read as neither white nor orange.
What is the meaning of the color Peach?
The name entered English as a color term in 1588, drawn from the fruit brought to Europe through Persia along early trade routes. By the 18th century, peach appeared as a fashionable shade in European textile dyeing, used for silk and fine cotton in women’s dress. Crayola standardized the name for the general public when it introduced a peach-toned crayon in its 1903 original box, making the color familiar across American households. The shade anchors the Tarte Cosmetics brand, whose signature packaging has used peach consistently since the company launched in 1999.
