What color is Behr Starlet Pink?
Behr Starlet Pink P120-1 is a pale pink with a noticeable lavender cast, giving it a cool, powdery appearance rather than a peachy one. Its light value keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the pink still reads clearly enough for a nursery, dressing area, or softly colored bedroom. In bright daylight, Starlet Pink can look clean and lightly floral; lower or warmer lighting may bring out its muted rose side. Pair it with crisp white trim, soft gray textiles, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a restrained look. It also makes a gentle accent color for built-ins or a small bathroom vanity.

LRV of Starlet Pink
Starlet Pink has an LRV of 64.13% 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 64.13%, 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.
