Using this color

Where #b1beba works

#B1BEBA (#b1beba) sits in the teal family at about 162° hue, 9% saturation, and 72% lightness. Contrast is 1.92:1 on white and 10.94:1 on black, so near-black labels read more clearly on the swatch itself. Nearest Tailwind token: neutral-300 (approximation unless the hex is an official scale stop).

Sensible jobs for this swatch

subtle surfaces, chips, and table stripes
text or icons on charcoal / dark mode

Do not use #b1beba as small body text on white — 1.92:1 misses WCAG AA (4.5:1). Pair it with a darker shade from the scale below, or check pairs in the contrast checker.

Low saturation makes this easy to overuse as a neutral. Keep one chromatic accent elsewhere so the interface does not go muddy.

Family context: Balance, healing, and sophistication. Popular in wellness and modern dashboards. Common uses still include buttons, charts, and accents in the Teal range — always verify the pair for this exact hex in the contrast checker.
