What color is Benjamin Moore Island Sunset?
Benjamin Moore Island Sunset 1346 is a clear, medium-light pink with a noticeable rosy-magenta cast. Its #E898BF color value gives it enough saturation to stand out on a feature wall, while still feeling light enough for a powder room, bedroom, or creative workspace. In daylight, Island Sunset reads as a fresh, lively pink; warm evening lighting can bring out its softer rose side. Pair it with crisp white trim for contrast, or use pale gray, soft lavender, and natural oak to keep the palette grounded. It is especially effective on an accent wall, painted furniture, or the inside of a bookcase where its color can be enjoyed in smaller doses.

LRV of Island Sunset
Island Sunset has an LRV of 43.81% 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 43.81%, 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.
