What color is Dulux Summer Surprise 6?

Dulux Summer Surprise 6 50RR 38/261 is a medium pink with a softened, dusty cast rather than a bright candy-like finish. Its rose-red base carries a gentle muted quality that keeps the color grounded on larger wall areas. In daylight, it reads as a clear warm pink, while lower or cooler light can bring out its slightly mauve, shadowed side. Use Summer Surprise 6 in a bedroom, dressing area, or dining nook with warm white trim, pale oak, and brushed brass for a layered look. It also makes a focused statement on a painted cabinet or interior door alongside clay neutrals, charcoal accents, and natural linen.
