What color is Dulux Heather Bloom 6?

Dulux Heather Bloom 6 90RB 74/044 is a very light, muted pink-grey with a soft mauve cast rather than a clear sugary pink. Its low saturation gives it a powdery, near-neutral appearance, while the red-blue influence keeps it slightly cooler than a peach or beige-based blush. In daylight, Heather Bloom 6 can read as a pale silvery rose; warmer artificial light may bring out its pinker side. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and living-room walls where a gentle wash of color is wanted without making the room feel overtly pink. Pair it with chalky white trim, warm grey textiles, pale oak, brushed nickel, or deep charcoal accents for definition.
