What color is Behr Gumball?
Behr Gumball P120-2 is a light, softened pink with a noticeable mauve-lilac cast, giving it more complexity than a straightforward blush. Its pale value keeps it airy on larger walls, while the muted saturation prevents it from reading overly sweet. In warm daylight, Gumball can lean rosier; under cooler bulbs, its lavender undertone becomes easier to see. It suits a bedroom, dressing area, nursery, or powder room where a gentle wash of color is wanted. Pair it with warm white trim, light oak, brushed brass, charcoal accents, or muted green textiles for contrast.

LRV of Gumball
Gumball has an LRV of 55.95% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 55.95%, 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.
