# Dulux Pink Prose

Source: [https://plan-home.com/color/pink-prose](https://plan-home.com/color/pink-prose)

Dulux Pink Prose 70RR 40/168 is a muted mid-tone pink with a dusty mauve cast, giving it more depth than a pale blush. Its softened grey undertone keeps the color from reading overly sweet, while the red base still brings noticeable warmth to a room. In bright daylight, Pink Prose can appear like a softened rose pink; under warmer evening lighting, its dusky, berry-leaning side becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and small sitting areas where a fuller wall color is wanted without moving into deep burgundy territory. Pair it with chalky off-whites, warm greige, walnut, aged brass, or charcoal accents, or use it on cabinetry for a grounded pink focal point.
