What color is Dulux Lilac Spring 6?

Dulux Lilac Spring 6 50RB 83/017 is an exceptionally pale, near-neutral tint with a faint rosy-lilac cast beneath its soft off-white surface. Its high lightness keeps it airy on full walls, while the restrained color prevents it from reading as plain white. In daylight, this shade can appear lightly pinked or silvery, whereas warmer artificial light may bring out its gentle blush undertone. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and quiet living spaces, especially alongside chalky whites, pale oak, brushed nickel, and soft grey textiles. Use Lilac Spring 6 on walls or ceilings where a subtle alternative to white is wanted without a strong pastel effect.
