What color is Dulux Rock Candy 1?

Dulux Rock Candy 1 43RR 19/444 is a medium-depth berry pink with a clear rose-red cast and a lightly muted finish. Its #B8537B value gives it enough saturation to hold its own on a feature wall, painted dresser, or set of dining chairs without reading as neon. In warm evening light, Rock Candy 1 can appear richer and redder, while cooler daylight brings out its faint plum-pink edge. Pair it with soft chalky whites, warm greige, dark charcoal, or natural oak to keep the color grounded. Brass hardware, terracotta ceramics, and cream linen add warmth around this shade, while black accents give it a sharper, more graphic look.
