Pigment

A colored chemical compound that absorbs some colors of light and reflects others
Real World Example
Imagine trying to choose an outfit from your wardrobe where some clothes bring out your personality, while others just don’t feel right. This is similar to how pigments work: they absorb certain colors of light and reflect others, just like how you choose clothes that highlight your best features. Just as you select an outfit that represents you best by reflecting your style, pigments reflect specific colors of light that give objects their distinctive colors, while absorbing the rest.
