What color is Behr Fruit Cocktail?
Behr Fruit Cocktail M140-4 is a medium, muted rose pink with a softly warm cast and enough grayness to keep it from reading overly sweet. In daylight, it shows as a clear dusty pink, while lower or cooler light can bring out its slightly subdued, mauve-leaning side. This color gives bedrooms, powder rooms, and reading corners a noticeable wash of color without the intensity of a bright coral or fuchsia. Pair Fruit Cocktail with creamy off-whites, warm greige, natural oak, woven linen, or aged brass for a grounded look. It is especially effective on full walls or a painted vanity where its mid-tone depth can hold its own.

LRV of Fruit Cocktail
Fruit Cocktail has an LRV of 35.11% 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 35.11%, 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.
