What color is Dulux Chalk Blush 3?

Dulux Chalk Blush 3 60YR 73/015 is a pale, low-saturation neutral with a faint warm blush cast beneath its soft grey-beige surface. Its high lightness keeps walls airy without reading as stark white, while the restrained colour gives it more presence than a plain off-white. In daylight, Chalk Blush 3 should appear gently warm and muted; under warmer artificial light, its pink-beige notes may become a little more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a quiet backdrop is wanted, particularly alongside pale oak, linen upholstery, chalky plaster, and brushed brass. Pair it with softened whites, warm taupes, or deeper earthy browns for a layered neutral scheme.
