Bootstrap CSS Seems To Override Any Change: Please help me change the color of text

I have downloaded a https://colorlib.com/wp/template/personify/.

I want to change the Red hyperlinks (showing in /css/bootstrap.css) as (assumingely) "--primary:#F73859;"

I have changed every instance of Red color that I can find in as much of the CSS as I could, yet whenever I refresh locally it's still showing the links as red.

There also is a folder containing scss files and I have not yet worked with those type of files yet.

How can I change the font and hover links for this page? There seems to be something overriding the changes I'm making.

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hey Tessando,

Is there any sort of live site yet? Sometimes it's easier to address these issues with an example.

The most likely solution to me is probably going to be to add an !important to the color you want. Otherwise, the bootstrap color scheme will probably override anything in place.
