Looking for light taupe/warm neutral paint for walls

Hi,
I wondered whether anyone could recommend a really light taupe/warm neutral paint for walls, please? Not Farrow & Ball - Dulux or other not too expensive paint! I'm looking for a colour that's very light but not so pale as to be almost white - would love any suggestions!

Pic. Light not great though. Lounge is east facing. Will take a pic of kitchen cupboards when It's a bit lighter. It looks a much lighter shade in the kitchen (west facing)

Um, I tried Egyptian Cotton in our kitchen and it certainly was grey-ish in there! Grin

The paint on the walls here is Skimming Stone (mantelpiece, mirror, bookcase all white) - north facing room but lots of light.

Realise this may not be massively helpful since at the time I was trying to take a picture of the flower rather than the paint Blush

Mellow Mocha and Perfectly Taupe were both quite lilac on my walls. I ended up painting over them in Crown Toasted Almond.

Haha was also coming to say Egyptian cotton. Grin

@Bluesheep8 Thanks so much for posting the photo - Skimming stone looks absolutely gorgeous! Did you have it copied at a Dulux mixing machine, or Valspar, or something else, please?

Craig & Rose Pale Cashmere is lovely. Many of my visitors have asked about it.

jessica I can't recall where the decorator had it done tbh but I think it was at Johnstone or crown. We have it on our kitchen cupboards too and that was crown.

Dulux Natural Hessian, is a lovely shade, I am often asked what shade my walls are painted in.

Natural hessian is lovely, not to dark but is a colour iykwim.

Would you say that Natural Hessian is beige, please?

Another vote for Dulux Natural Hessian. Yes, it's beige.

These walls were painted with Dulux Natural Hessian ...
