What color is Benjamin Moore Powder Pink?
Benjamin Moore Powder Pink 2009-70 is an extremely light blush with a warm, peach-leaning cast and barely-there saturation. Its near-white depth keeps it airy on broad walls, while the pink becomes more noticeable beside crisp white trim or cooler gray surfaces. In bright daylight, this shade can read as a soft warm off-white; under evening lamps, its rosy tint is likely to feel clearer. Use it in bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, or a powder room where a subtle wash of color is wanted without making the room feel dark. Pair Powder Pink with creamy whites, pale natural oak, brushed brass, or muted terracotta accents for a gently warm palette.

What are Benjamin Moore Powder Pink undertones?
Powder Pink 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 Powder Pink
Powder Pink has an LRV of 80.72% 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 80.72%, 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.
