What color is Dulux Tissue Paper?
Dulux Tissue Paper is a pale, softly muted beige with a noticeable warm blush cast, sitting close to off-white without reading stark. Its low saturation gives walls a gentle, powdery appearance, while daylight can bring out its subtle peach-beige undertone. In lower or cooler light, the shade may appear more neutral and lightly greyed, making it useful for bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms that need warmth without a strong cream finish. Pair it with chalky whites, warm greige upholstery, pale oak, linen, and brushed brass for a quiet, layered look. It is especially effective across broad wall areas, where its delicate depth can soften sharp architectural lines.

What are Dulux Tissue Paper undertones?
Tissue Paper is a light, very muted muted beige. The HEX sample has a subtle orange bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear orange. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.
