What color is Behr Minstrel Rose?
Behr Minstrel Rose S140-4 is a muted mid-tone rose with a softly weathered, grayish cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet. Its warm pink presence is gentle enough for bedroom walls, a powder room, or a painted accent nook, especially alongside warm white trim. In bright daylight, this color can appear lighter and more powdery; lower light brings out its deeper, dustier rose character. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, terracotta tile, or creamy beige for a layered, grounded palette. On cabinetry or a small piece of furniture, Minstrel Rose adds noticeable color without becoming the room’s loudest element.

LRV of Minstrel Rose
Minstrel Rose has an LRV of 37.79% 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 37.79%, 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.
