What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Paradise?
Benjamin Moore Pink Paradise 003 is a light, clear coral-pink with a noticeable peach cast that keeps it warm and sunny rather than sugary. Its high brightness lets it read as a soft blush in strong daylight, while evening or warmer bulbs can draw out its salmon-toned side. Use it on bedroom or powder room walls for color that feels present without becoming heavy, or reserve it for a painted dresser, door, or interior shelving. Creamy white trim, pale oak, rattan, and natural linen give Pink Paradise an easy, grounded setting. For more contrast, pair this shade with muted olive green, dusty blue, or deep charcoal accents.

LRV of Pink Paradise
Pink Paradise has an LRV of 52.6% 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 52.6%, 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.
