hot pink

Neon-bright rosy shade

Hot pink is a vivid, intense shade of pink—brighter and more saturated than standard pink, often with a slightly orange or magenta cast.

The color suggests boldness, femininity, or deliberate attention-grabbing: She wore hot pink lipstick, a hot pink neon sign.

Hot here means intense or striking, as in hot red.
