What color is Benjamin Moore Rosetone?
Benjamin Moore Rosetone 1186 is a light, muted blush with a warm peach-beige cast. Its low saturation keeps the pink influence soft and powdery rather than sugary, giving walls a gentle wash of color without overwhelming the room. In bright daylight, Rosetone can read as a pale rosy neutral, while warmer evening light tends to bring out its peachier side. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, nurseries, and powder rooms, especially when paired with creamy white trim, light oak, linen, and brushed brass. For contrast, use this shade alongside softened charcoal, mushroom taupe, or muted olive accents.

LRV of Rosetone
Rosetone has an LRV of 60.09% 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 60.09%, 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.
