What color is Dulux Rock Candy 2?

Dulux Rock Candy 2 21RR 36/354 is a mid-tone pink with a clear rosy cast and a soft mauve lean. Its moderate saturation gives it enough presence for a feature wall, while keeping the overall look gentler than a bright fuchsia or candy pink. In daylight, this color reads as a warm, dusty rose; under warmer evening bulbs, the pink can appear fuller and slightly deeper. Try it in a bedroom, dressing area, or powder room, paired with chalky whites, pale grey, walnut, brushed brass, or natural linen. On cabinetry or a small painted piece, Rock Candy 2 can add color without overwhelming the surrounding finishes.
