What color is Dulux Rocksalt Rose?

Dulux Rocksalt Rose 90RR 28/245 is a mid-depth dusty rose with a gently muted, greyed finish. Its red-rose base is softened rather than bright, giving walls noticeable color without the sweetness of a candy pink. In daylight, this shade can read as a mellow faded rose, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its earthier, more terracotta-leaning character. It suits bedrooms, dining rooms, and small sitting areas where a fuller wall color feels appropriate. Pair Rocksalt Rose with chalky off-whites, warm taupes, deep brown wood, aged brass, or charcoal accents for contrast.
