What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Peach?

Benjamin Moore Pink Peach 2009-40 is a clear, lively coral-pink with a warm peach cast and a soft red undertone. Its #F88A87 value gives it a mid-light depth that feels cheerful without reading like a pale pastel. In warm afternoon light, the peach side of this color may become more noticeable, while cooler daylight can make its pink character appear cleaner. It brings energy to a powder room, child’s room, or breakfast nook, and also makes a memorable accent on a door or painted furniture. Pair Pink Peach with creamy whites, light natural wood, woven cane, or muted sage green for contrast that keeps the color grounded.
