What color is Sherwin Williams Pale Pink?
Sherwin Williams Pale Pink SW 9696 is a very light, low-saturation blush neutral with a soft beige cast. Its #eee6de color value reads warmer than a pure white, showing gentle pink-peach undertones without becoming distinctly rosy on the wall. In bright daylight, Pale Pink can appear close to a creamy off-white, while lower or warmer lighting tends to bring out its muted blush character. It is well suited to bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, and bathrooms where a barely-there warm tint is preferred over stark white. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, pale linen, brushed brass, or clay-toned accents for a cohesive palette.

LRV of Pale Pink
Pale Pink has an LRV of 79.78% 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 79.78%, 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.
