What color is Behr Pink Mirage?
Behr Pink Mirage RD-W08 is an exceptionally light off-white with a faint blush cast that keeps it from reading stark or clinical. Its subtle red-beige undertone gives walls a soft warmth, though the color remains pale enough to appear nearly white in bright daylight. In warm artificial light, Pink Mirage can show a little more of its delicate pink-beige character, while cooler light makes it look cleaner and more neutral. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, and low-contrast living spaces, especially alongside creamy whites, light oak, natural linen, and brushed brass. Use it across full walls or ceilings when you want a barely-there hint of color rather than a pronounced pink.

LRV of Pink Mirage
Pink Mirage has an LRV of 86.04% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 86.04%, 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.
