There is something timeless about a dusty rose, particularly when it's used in a bathroom. It feels at once traditional and trend-forward, colorful without dominating a space.

Ten years on from the millennial pink craze, design insiders explain that this hue is making a huge comeback.
'Pastel pink had a huge moment in 2016, and was often referred to as ‘millennial pink’, especially when used alongside grey,' Ronseal’s brand manager and interior paint expert, Clara Dursen explains. 'The year also saw rose gold hardware take over traditional silver and gold, and Rose Quartz was awarded Pantone's color of the year.'
She continues, 'Pink can work really well as a neutral, especially when paired with wood and striking dark shades. We’re especially seeing various shades of pink being used as a way to inject warmth into a space and complement other rich, earthy tones like oxblood and taupe. More muted and soft tones like mauve and salmon will be popular choices for redecorating, as these can make a bold statement, especially when paired with contrasting tones like slate blue or olive green.'

Whether you’re updating a powder room or giving your main bathroom a subtle refresh, dusty rose proves that pink doesn’t have to be overwhelming – it can be effortlessly chic and surprisingly versatile. Just ask Jessica Alba, whose pink vanity shows how a soft hue can elevate a space with warmth and personality.
