What color is Benjamin Moore Blushing Brilliance?

Benjamin Moore Blushing Brilliance 009 is a light, warm pink with a noticeable peach-coral cast. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the softened saturation prevents it from reading as overly sweet or bubblegum-like. In daylight, this color can show its gentle apricot warmth; under warmer evening lamps, it may appear a little rosier and more enveloping. Try it in a bedroom, powder room, nursery, or dining area with creamy whites, pale oak, natural linen, and brushed brass. For contrast, Blushing Brilliance pairs well with muted olive greens, dusty blue-grays, or deep brown wood accents.
