What color is Benjamin Moore Pearly Pink?

Benjamin Moore Pearly Pink 2171-50 is a light, softly saturated pink with a clear warm cast drawn from its peach-leaning undertone. Its pale value keeps it airy on full walls, while the color remains visible enough to give bedrooms, nurseries, and powder rooms a gentle wash of warmth. In bright daylight, Pearly Pink reads fresh and petal-like; lower or warmer artificial light can bring forward more of its peachy character. Pair it with creamy whites, light natural oak, woven linens, or muted clay accents for a cohesive palette. It also makes a charming choice for a painted vanity, interior door, or small accent area where a stronger pink might feel too bold.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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).
