What color is Sherwin Williams Cosmetic Peach?
Sherwin Williams Cosmetic Peach SW 6618 is a light, warm peach with a noticeable pink cast and a softly muted finish. Its high lightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the peach undertone adds more color than an off-white or pale blush. In bright daylight, Cosmetic Peach can read fresh and lightly rosy; under warm bulbs, it tends to look fuller and more apricot-toned. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, nurseries, and dining spaces where a gentle wash of color is wanted without a heavy effect. Pair it with creamy whites, pale oak, warm brass, terracotta ceramics, or deeper clay and rust accents for a grounded contrast.

LRV of Cosmetic Peach
Cosmetic Peach has an LRV of 60.16% 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 60.16%, 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.
