What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Attraction?
Benjamin Moore Pink Attraction 1255 is a muted, light pink with a gently grayed cast that keeps it from reading sugary or overly sweet. Its subtle red-rose character gives the color a touch of warmth, while the softened saturation lets it sit comfortably alongside neutral finishes. In bright daylight, Pink Attraction can appear airy and powdery; under warmer evening lamps, its blush tone becomes more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, nurseries, and powder rooms, especially on full walls where its pale depth can create a quiet wash of color. Pair it with creamy off-whites, soft taupe, pale oak, brushed brass, or charcoal accents for contrast.

LRV of Pink Attraction
Pink Attraction has an LRV of 50.11% 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 50.11%, 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.
