Dulux Waterlily Blush 3 30RR 42/198 is a mid-tone pink with a muted rosy-purple cast, reflected in its #CB9DB0 color value. It has enough greyed softness to feel less sugary than a bright blush, while still bringing clear color to a room. On broad walls, Waterlily Blush 3 can suit bedrooms, dressing areas, and softly layered living spaces. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, or brushed brass for a gentle tonal scheme. For more contrast, charcoal, deep plum, or dark espresso wood can give this shade a sharper, more grounded edge.
