What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Moiré?
Benjamin Moore Pink Moiré 050 is a pale, warm blush with a creamy peach cast rather than a cool, blue-based pink. Its light value keeps the color soft on broad walls, where it can read almost like a tinted ivory in bright natural light. In lower or warmer artificial light, the peach undertone becomes more noticeable. Pink Moiré suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and nurseries, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, rattan, or brushed brass. For contrast, pair it with muted olive, dusty terracotta, or a deep brown accent.

What are Benjamin Moore Pink Moiré undertones?
Pink Moiré is a very light, muted peach-blush with low saturation and a creamy overall character. In the supplied digital sample, its color direction leans orange, with a slight red and yellow bias that makes it read warmer than a cool pink. Benjamin Moore describes it as “soft and creamy” and labels it within its Orange color family, which fits its visibly pale peach-pink appearance. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its creamy peach cast, while cool daylight can make it appear lighter and less warm.

LRV of Pink Moiré
Pink Moiré has an LRV of 71.9% and refers to Light colors that reflect most 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 71.9%, 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.
