pinkiness

Subtle rosy hue

Pinkiness is the quality of being pink—having that characteristic pale reddish hue.

The word describes the degree to which something displays this color: the pinkiness of her cheeks after the cold walk, the pinkiness of the shrimp indicates it's cooked through.

It can range from a subtle flush to an intense rosy tone.
