What color is Behr Retro Pink?
Behr Retro Pink S170-4 is a muted, mid-tone pink with a noticeable beige cast that keeps it grounded rather than sugary. Its soft terracotta-gray undertone gives the color a gently weathered look, especially in daylight. In bright south-facing rooms, Retro Pink can read warmer and rosier; under cooler artificial light, its subdued taupe side becomes more apparent. It suits bedroom walls, powder rooms, or a dining nook where a full pink feels too bold. Pair it with creamy off-whites, warm oak, aged brass, and deeper brown or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Retro Pink
Retro Pink has an LRV of 39.03% 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 39.03%, 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.
