What color is Benjamin Moore Dusk Pink?
Benjamin Moore Dusk Pink 2013-40 is a bright, warm pink with clear coral and peach influence. Its #FF9E84 color value gives it a sunny, medium-light presence rather than the muted look of a dusty rose. In daylight, Dusk Pink can read as lively peach-coral, while warmer artificial lighting may bring out its rosy side. It makes an effective choice for a powder room, breakfast nook, children’s room, or an accent wall where a stronger dose of color feels appropriate. Pair it with creamy white trim, pale warm wood, terracotta, or deep green accents for contrast.

LRV of Dusk Pink
Dusk Pink has an LRV of 46.19% and refers to Light Medium colors that reflect half 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 46.19%, 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.
