Shades of Red
with Hex Codes

Red is the most emotionally intense colour — it signals passion, urgency, danger, and love in equal measure. In CSS, the base red is #FF0000, but designers choose from hundreds of variants: deep crimson for luxury brands, bright scarlet for calls-to-action, soft coral for UI accents, dark maroon for premium feels, and warm tomato for food brands.

How to Use Shades of Red in CSS

Every shade on this page can be used directly in CSS. Copy the hex code and paste it into any CSS color property: color, background-color, border-color, box-shadow, or outline-color.

For transparency effects, convert the hex to RGB using the table above and use rgba(). For a design system, store your chosen shade as a CSS custom property so you can update it site-wide from one place.

/* Crimson heading */ h1 { color: #DC143C; } /* Coral button */ .btn { background-color: #FF7F50; } /* Maroon with transparency */ .overlay { background-color: rgba(128, 0, 0, 0.7); } /* CSS custom property */ :root { --brand-red: #FF0000; }
