Halation

Neon & Glow · Static · pure CSS

The warm photographic bloom film type picks up — a soft red-orange halation fringe haloing the letters from layered text-shadows. Cinematic, not neon, and stays still.

Halation

How it works

Halation is a static neon & glow text effect rendered entirely in CSS. It works on a single element — just add the .text-effect class, with no extra HTML.

Controls

Halation exposes 3 dedicated controls — Hue, Bloom and Intensity — on top of the shared type controls (font, weight, letter-spacing and case). Open it in the generator to tune every value live, then copy the updated CSS.

CSS

/* Halation — generated with TEXT-FX
 * HTML: just put the class on any element.
 * Font: 'Space Grotesk', sans-serif (load from Google Fonts).
 */

.text-effect {
  font-family: 'Space Grotesk', sans-serif;
  font-weight: 900;
  letter-spacing: 0px;
  text-transform: none;
}

.text-effect {
  color: hsl(15 45% 92%);
  text-shadow:
    0 0 6.3px hsl(21 95% 66% / 0.74),
    0 0 16.2px hsl(9 92% 58% / 0.59),
    0 0 32.4px hsl(27 95% 60% / 0.33),
    0 0 54px hsl(27 95% 60% / 0.33);
}

Pure CSS — just add the .text-effect class to any element.
