What color is Sherwin Williams Irresistible?
Sherwin Williams Irresistible SW 6562 is a light, muted pink with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it from reading overly sugary. Its soft rosy color has a cool-leaning, slightly mauve appearance, especially in shaded rooms or under cooler bulbs. In brighter natural light, it looks cleaner and more delicate while retaining its gentle dusty quality. Use Irresistible on bedroom or powder room walls for subtle color, or try it on a painted vanity or interior door against warm white trim. Pair it with pale oak, brushed nickel, charcoal accents, and creamy off-whites for a grounded finish.

LRV of Irresistible
Irresistible has an LRV of 58.61% 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 58.61%, 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.
