The color of Ph paper is supposed to change, depending on the Ph level of the liquid you placed it on. The color is dependent as well. When purchasing Ph paper, it comes with a guide on the box. It is best to use that.

A non used pH paper has a color which depends of the producer. Example for pH-box paper from Merck: brick red for basic, yellow for neutral, blue for acids.

In bases or acids the color is changed; to identify the pH of a solution with a pH paper compare the obtained color with colors on the box label.
