What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Blossom?
Benjamin Moore Pink Blossom 2081-40 is a medium, muted rosy pink with a warm red cast and enough grayness to keep it from reading sugary. Its depth gives it more presence than a pale blush, making it a strong candidate for a powder room, bedroom wall, or painted accent furniture. In bright daylight, Pink Blossom can appear clearer and fresher, while softer evening light tends to bring out its warmer, duskier side. Pair it with creamy off-whites, soft taupe, natural oak, or brushed brass for a grounded contrast. For a bolder scheme, this color also sits well beside deep burgundy, charcoal, or dark green accents.

LRV of Pink Blossom
Pink Blossom has an LRV of 36.81% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of 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 36.81%, 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.
