What color is Valspar UK Blueberry Ice?

Valspar UK Blueberry Ice X88R186F is a very light, muted blue with a soft grey cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its pale value gives walls an airy look, while the blue undertone is most noticeable in clear daylight. In warmer artificial light, Blueberry Ice can appear closer to a gentle blue-grey, making it a considered option for bedrooms, bathrooms, and north-facing rooms that need a lighter finish. Pair it with crisp white trim for definition, or use soft stone, pale oak, brushed nickel, and charcoal accents to underline its cool character. It is best suited to larger wall areas, though it can also make understated painted cabinetry in a light-filled kitchen or utility room.
