Recommend me a blush pink paint?

Something that's not too pink but won't look like a slightly off white either. Have tested a couple so far but not keen on any (annoyingly, it was ages ago and I no longer have the tester pots so not sure of the exact shades... Two were Dulux I think one was called blush pink, and another was maybe homebase's own?).

It's for a dining room and it's not the brightest of rooms which I think is why the lighter blush pinks I've tried just look like a mucky white/cream.

Help?

I’ve just painted my kitchen in Farrow and Ball Pink Ground, which sounds like it might fit your criteria. It has a bit of yellow in it, which stops it from being a sugary sweet pink, but not so much that it looks like cream. My DH described it as surprisingly sophisticated...

F and B Calamine? I want to paint my bathroom in this.

Pink ground is beautiful. I have it in a north facing, dark room. It’s a true blush pink and has a lovely glow to it. As Crazzzycat says, it’s also quite ‘grown up’.

Went and got a load of testers yesterday! Fun times ahead.

I've got Middleton pink (F&B) in my daughter's room and it's beautiful. It's a pale, cool pink that doesn't look sugary in any way.

If it's not a very light room is Dulux light and space range worth considering? They are quite good for brightening up dull rooms, we kept thinking we had left a light on when we put them into a dull room.
