What color is Benjamin Moore Dog's Ear?
Benjamin Moore Dog's Ear 2076-60 is a pale pink with a noticeable lilac cast, giving it a cooler, petal-like character rather than a peachy blush. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the soft purple undertone adds more definition than an off-white pastel. In daylight, Dog's Ear can read as a delicate orchid pink; under warmer lamps, it may appear slightly rosier. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and a nursery ceiling, especially alongside clean white trim. Pair it with weathered oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, or muted sage textiles for contrast without making the palette feel overly sweet.

LRV of Dog's Ear
Dog's Ear has an LRV of 65.57% 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 65.57%, 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.
