What color is Benjamin Moore Fantasy Pink?
Benjamin Moore Fantasy Pink 1290 is a light, muted blush pink with a gentle warm cast and a soft, powdery appearance. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the subtle red-peach influence prevents it from reading as icy or lavender-based. In bright daylight, Fantasy Pink can look clean and delicate; under warmer evening bulbs, it may take on a slightly rosier, more enveloping look. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, and powder rooms, especially when paired with warm white trim, pale oak, linen, or brushed brass. For contrast, try it alongside charcoal accents, deep olive textiles, or dark brown wood.

LRV of Fantasy Pink
Fantasy Pink has an LRV of 62.55% 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 62.55%, 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.
