What are Valspar UK Faded Fig undertones?

Faded Fig is a mid-light, very muted muted taupe. The HEX sample has a subtle pink-red bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear pink-red. 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.
