Neon color

Also called: neon, fluorescent color, electric color, acid color.

Neon colors are so bright they seem to glow, especially on a dark background. Compare with an ordinary green.

Neon

Say it in a prompt

Use one neon color, acid lime #D2FF00, on the near-black #111112 background: only for the big headline word and the pill-shaped Store button (with near-black text on it). Everything else stays white and gray.

Seen on

  • Lando Norris: The acid lime #D2FF00 is used for his signature drawn big over a dark section, and for the Store button.

You might describe it as

  • super bright lime green on black
  • highlighter colors that almost glow
  • fluorescent yellow green text

Not to be confused with

  • Glow

    A neon color is the color itself being very bright; a glow is soft light spreading around something.
