What color is Dulux Candy Love 2?

Dulux Candy Love 2 70RR 25/338 is a mid-depth rosy pink with a clear red base and a gently muted, dusty cast. Its #C16D7E tone has enough pigment to hold its own on a feature wall, yet it is soft enough for a bedroom, dressing area, or small sitting room. In bright daylight, Candy Love 2 reads as a fresh rose pink, while warmer evening lighting can bring out its deeper berry-red side. Pair it with warm off-whites, pale plaster tones, walnut, aged brass, or natural linen for a grounded look. It also makes a characterful choice for painted cabinetry or an interior door when balanced with quieter surrounding walls.
