tint

     

In color theory, a tint is the mixture of a color with white (also calle a pastel color) , and a shade is the mixture of a color with black. Mixing with white increases lightness, while mixing with black reduces it. Mixing with any neutral color, including black and white, reduces chroma or colorfulness, leaving hue unchanged.
