What color is Benjamin Moore Soft Salmon?
Benjamin Moore Soft Salmon 096 is a light, warm peach with a gentle salmon-pink cast and a creamy, sunlit quality. Its softened saturation keeps it from reading overly bright, making it a natural fit for bedroom walls, breakfast nooks, or a powder room that needs more color than a neutral. In clear daylight, Soft Salmon appears like a pale peach, while warm evening bulbs can draw out its richer orange-pink undertones. Pair it with warm white trim, light oak, natural linen, and muted green or dusty blue accents for contrast. It can also bring a cheerful but restrained note to painted cabinetry or a small accent wall.

LRV of Soft Salmon
Soft Salmon has an LRV of 58.58% 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 58.58%, 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.
