Ballerina is a very light, soft pink with subtle warm undertones.
It is lighter, a bit warmer and less saturated than Cherry Blossom, with a pale, gently pastel appearance.
The Cotton Merino is a tiny bit darker and more dusty than the Merino.

Hue: Neutral-warm
Color Season: Soft Summer
Also nice for: Light Summer
Despite its slightly warm-leaning tone, Ballerina is best placed in the Summer season due to its low chroma and saturation. The hue sits at the warmest edge of what Summer can tolerate.
