What color is Benjamin Moore Delicate Rose?
Benjamin Moore Delicate Rose 2008-50 is a light, clear pink with a distinctly rosy cast rather than a muted blush. Its #FBB9B9 color value gives it noticeable softness and brightness, making it more present on a wall than the palest petal tones. In daylight, it can read as fresh and cheerful, while warmer evening bulbs may bring out its peachier side. Use it in a powder room, child’s bedroom, dressing area, or as an accent wall where a clean pink is welcome. Crisp white trim, pale oak, warm brass, and soft gray textiles give Delicate Rose a grounded, edited look.

LRV of Delicate Rose
Delicate Rose has an LRV of 56.87% 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 56.87%, 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.
