What color is Benjamin Moore Valentine Memories?
Benjamin Moore Valentine Memories 888 is a very light blush pink with a gentle peach cast, drawn from its warm, creamy base. Its high value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the soft saturation prevents it from reading like a bright candy pink. In daylight, this shade can look almost like a tinted off-white with a rosy warmth; warmer evening bulbs bring out its peachier side. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, nurseries, and ceiling treatments, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, natural linen, and brushed brass. For contrast, pair Valentine Memories with muted olive greens, clay tones, or a deep charcoal accent.

LRV of Valentine Memories
Valentine Memories has an LRV of 74.39% 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 74.39%, 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.
