Papaya is a very light, creamy orange that's almost peachy-white. It's soft, warm, and incredibly gentle on the eyes.
Named after the papaya fruit's pale orange flesh. The color represents tropical softness and natural beauty.
Papaya works beautifully as a background color or neutral. It's popular in interior design and wedding palettes. Great for skincare packaging and spa branding.
