What color is Behr Cabaret?
Behr Cabaret M130-5 is a muted rose with a noticeable mauve cast, sitting between dusty pink and softened plum. Its medium depth keeps it from reading sugary, while the grayed quality gives the color a calm, slightly vintage appearance. In bright daylight, Cabaret can look like a gentle blush pink; under warmer evening lamps, its rosy-purple undertone becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and reading nooks, especially on full walls where its softened saturation has room to breathe. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, brushed brass, charcoal accents, or creamy linen textiles for a grounded finish.

LRV of Cabaret
Cabaret has an LRV of 29.47% 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 29.47%, 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.
