Using kitchen paint on a bathroom ceiling

I have just had my bathroom tiled (all walls and floor) and now just have the bathroom ceiling to paint. I have painted it once to seal it with watered down emulsion (on new plaster).

My question is can I use my leftover Dulux Kitchen Paint on the bathroom ceiling rather than buying a new tin of bathroom paint. My ceiling is only 2.5m2 so it seems rather a waste to buy a whole tin of bathroom paint for such a small area and I have some kitchen paint left which is about the colour that I would use in any case.

My issue is - will the paint peel or would the Kitchen paint have similar properties to the bathroom paint?

Thanks
 
They are very similar. You should be fine.
