What color is Benjamin Moore Pink Peony?
Benjamin Moore Pink Peony 2078-70 is a very light blush pink with a soft rosy cast and a faint coolness that keeps it from reading peachy. Its high lightness gives walls an airy, barely-there wash of color, while the pink remains visible enough to define a small room or alcove. In bright daylight, Pink Peony appears clean and delicate; under warm lamps, it can look slightly more muted and powdery. It suits bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, and powder rooms, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or light gray stone. Use this shade across full walls for a gentle tint, or on a ceiling or interior door for a quieter pink detail.

LRV of Pink Peony
Pink Peony has an LRV of 79.69% 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 79.69%, 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.
