</p><p>Color associations are often not only subjective, but vary by culture as well. For instance, cyan as a color of light if equidistant between green and blue, but in my experience, lighter cyan tends to be considered a kind of blue, and darker cyan (teal) more often tends to be considered a kind of green. But in some cultures,
green and blue of any shade were historically not considered separate colors at all.
</p><p>Personally, I see pink as a very light red (perhaps often with some magenta), and peach as a very light orange. I've never really seen them as the same color, but my eyes have also always been sensitive to differences in hue. And I always thought it curious, studying rocks as a child, that a certain characteristically orange- or peach-hued granite was called "
pink granite." Or later how Link's clothes in <i>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</i> could be dyed an unambiguous non-orange-hued pink, but the color was called "peach," at least in the English localization. So, obviously, some people <i>do</i> see them as either the same color or different variations of the same color.

<p>Ah, yes good old <i>grue</i>!
</p><p>There are some languages that see pink and red as just shades of one another such as Spanish, but others such as English don't do this and see pink as its own distinct color. I believe languages such as Russian see what in English is called baby blue as its own separate color just like pink in this language.
</p><p>Not sure why this has turned into a discussion on color theory, but I don't mind it.
</p><p>I will say that before I connected my laptop just as I was reading the comment above, GC's Pearl's hair was closer to pink because my screen was darker, but once I connected it, it was back to orangy-yellowish as I've always seen it on TV and on this website as well as elsewhere.
</p><p>Anyways, back on topic.

<figcaption> </figcaption></figure><p>The second being that she <i>did</i> have a Pearl before Pink Pearl, but the same accident that caused Pink Pearl's eye crack caused White's original Pearl to be broken, and she thought that taking Pink Pearl would be an appropriate solution.
</p><p>Also, if you want to look that deep into it, Pearl's hair is literally closer to being red then it is to being orange. And as I said, the crewniverse considers it to be pink.

<figcaption> </figcaption></figure><p>Pearl's hair is peach, which is a shade of pink (or at least it is in the crewniverse's opinion, seeing as it is listed as Pink in the Guide to the Crystal Gems). It most definitively does <i>not</i> have any kind of yellow-ish tone to it.
</p><p>Pearl and Pink Pearl's complexion tones are most definitively very different. Pearl's is very clearly a pale yellow, while Pink Pearl's is completely pure white.
</p><p>As for your third point, It bears absolutely no relevance to anything I said. I assume you must be trying to debunk my point about how Pearl's coloring doesn't match any of the grayscale gems we've seen, but when I said that, I was never talking about Pink Pearl's design when controlled by White Diamond. I was talking about White Diamond herself and the gems we saw in the uncorruption scene that were grayscale- all of which have similar color schemes: contrasting grays with very faint hues, more often then not cool hues. These don't <i>at all</i> match Pearl's bright pastel color scheme.
