What color is Behr Fire Mist?
Behr Fire Mist P190-1 is a light peachy blush with a creamy, sun-warmed cast. Its soft orange-pink undertone keeps it from reading like plain beige or off-white, while the pale value prevents it from feeling overly sweet. In bright daylight, Fire Mist appears airy and lightly apricot; under warmer lamps, its peach character becomes more noticeable. It can bring gentle color to bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, or a breakfast nook without visually shrinking the space. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, terracotta accents, or muted sage for an easy, grounded palette.

LRV of Fire Mist
Fire Mist has an LRV of 75.01% and refers to Off‑White 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 75.01%, 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.
