There ought to be a better way to customize the colors for LaTeX mode,
but the only thing I can suggest is to move point to the text whose
color you want to customize and then do M-x “customize-face”. If you
press ENTER without writing anything in the minibuffer, it will
customize the face at point.

Thanks you. I use Emacs 24.5 as shipped in Debian 9. I have attached a
screenshot of “emacs -q” (because otherwise I have custom colors). Does
it look like this to you as well?

Maybe it is just that your terminal emulator is mapping the 8 color
palette to pastel colors, as another user said.
