What color is Sherwin Williams Audrey's Blush?
Sherwin Williams Audrey's Blush SW 9001 is a muted, medium-depth rose with a noticeable gray cast that keeps its pink from feeling sugary. Its color sits between dusty blush and soft mauve, with a gently warm red undertone visible beneath the softened surface. In bright natural light, Audrey's Blush can look lighter and more pink, while lower or cooler light brings out its grayer, slightly wine-toned side. It has enough presence for a bedroom, powder room, or dining area wall, and can also make a distinctive statement on cabinetry or a painted interior door. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, pale oak, aged brass, or deeper burgundy-plum details for a layered palette.

LRV of Audrey's Blush
Audrey's Blush has an LRV of 26.25% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 26.25%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
