What color is Dulux Rock Candy 3?

Dulux Rock Candy 3 14RR 48/276 is a light, clear pink with a noticeable lilac-violet cast rather than a peachy or coral undertone. Its mid-light depth gives it enough color to read clearly on walls, while the soft saturation keeps it from feeling overly sugary. In bright daylight, Rock Candy 3 can appear fresher and slightly cooler; under warm evening lighting, its rosy side becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, powder rooms, or a single accent wall paired with crisp white trim, pale grey, or muted plum details. Try it alongside light oak, brushed brass, or natural linen to give the pink a more grounded, contemporary setting.
