What color is Sherwin Williams Honey Blush?
Sherwin Williams Honey Blush SW 6660 is a light, sun-warmed peach with a clear golden beige base. Its #f5cf9b color value gives it a softly saturated appearance: brighter and more cheerful than a standard cream, yet pale enough to keep walls feeling open. In daylight, Honey Blush reads as a gentle apricot-leaning neutral, while warmer bulbs can bring out its honeyed yellow notes. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, and bedrooms where a creamy white might feel too plain. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, and muted terracotta or dusty olive accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Honey Blush
Honey Blush has an LRV of 66.58% 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 66.58%, 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.
