What color is Valspar UK Enchanted Mermaid?

Valspar UK Enchanted Mermaid R220C is a clear, saturated blue-green with a noticeable teal cast. Its #009f86 colour value gives it enough depth for a feature wall or painted cabinetry, while still reading lively rather than heavy. In bright daylight, the green side is likely to feel more pronounced; lower or cooler light can bring out its bluer teal character. Pair it with warm white, pale sand, natural oak, or brushed brass to add contrast and keep the colour grounded. It is especially effective in bathrooms, kitchens, or dining spaces where a stronger hit of colour suits the room.
