What color is Benjamin Moore Dawn Pink?
Benjamin Moore Dawn Pink 2010-50 is a light, clear pink with a noticeable peach-coral cast rather than a muted blush look. Its high brightness keeps the color playful and fresh on walls, while the warm red-orange undertone gives it enough presence for a powder room, child’s bedroom, or breakfast nook. In direct daylight, Dawn Pink can read brighter and more buoyant; softer evening light tends to bring out its gentler rosy side. Pair it with warm white trim, pale natural oak, rattan, or brushed brass for a sunny, cohesive palette. For contrast, charcoal, deep navy, or leafy green accents give this shade a sharper, more graphic edge.

LRV of Dawn Pink
Dawn Pink has an LRV of 57.11% 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 57.11%, 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.
