What color is Sherwin Williams Cultured Pearl?

Sherwin Williams Cultured Pearl SW 6028 is a pale, softly muted neutral with a noticeable blush-beige cast. Its light value keeps walls airy, while the gentle pink and warm gray undertones prevent it from reading like a plain white. In bright daylight, Cultured Pearl can appear clean and powdery; under warm lamps, its rosy warmth becomes more apparent. It suits bedrooms, dressing areas, and living rooms, especially alongside cream upholstery, light oak, aged brass, or warm white trim. Use this shade on full walls when a barely-there color is wanted without the starkness of pure white.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 72.83%, 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.
