Benjamin Moore

Genuine Pink

2005-40

Genuine Pink is a medium pink with gray undertones that temper its warmth and give it a muted quality. With an LRV of 29.98, this shade provides moderate light reflectance, suitable for bedrooms, living rooms, or dining areas. The gray base prevents the pink from appearing too saturated, allowing it to function in both modern and traditional settings.

Benjamin Moore's White Dove and Soft Chamois offer neutral pairings, while Hale Navy and Kendall Charcoal create stronger contrast. Dreamy Cloud provides a lavender option for analogous color combinations.
