What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Cloud?
Benjamin Moore Pink Cloud 887 is a very light, softened pink with a warm blush cast and a gentle hint of peach in its #F8E5DD color value. Its pale depth keeps it closer to a tinted neutral than a candy-like pink, making it especially useful for bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms, and softly colored ceilings. In bright daylight, Pink Cloud can read airy and nearly off-white; under warm lamps, its peach-pink character becomes more apparent. Pair it with creamy whites, light oak, natural linen, and brushed brass for a warm, low-contrast look, or add muted sage or dusty blue accents for cooler contrast. This shade is best suited to broad interior walls or smaller architectural details where its subtle color can be appreciated up close.

What are Benjamin Moore Pink Cloud undertones?
Pink Cloud is a near-white, very muted warm off-white. The HEX sample has a subtle red bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear red. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Pink Cloud
Pink Cloud has an LRV of 80.1% and refers to Off‑White 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 80.1%, 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.
