While it might be a poor reproduction, the shade of "pink," on that box, is far removed from the real colour; there's a sample in the National Archives, and it's so pale it's possible to see that it's pink only by laying it on a sheet of clean white paper.
"Camotint Green" was actually ordinary Sky (though glossy,) and there was no "Royal Blue" in the RAF's inventory during the war.
