What color is Dulux Caramel Blush 2?

Dulux Caramel Blush 2 10YY 44/215 is a mid-tone beige with a warm, softly peach-leaning cast. Its muted depth keeps it from reading too yellow, giving walls a gentle caramel-tan appearance rather than a bright cream. In daylight, this color can feel lighter and more sandy, while warmer evening lighting brings out its rosy beige notes. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a warm neutral is wanted without the flatness of standard beige. Pair Caramel Blush 2 with chalky off-whites, natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta details, or deep olive accents for a grounded palette.
