Benjamin Moore

Peppermint

1359

Peppermint from Benjamin Moore is a minty pink with cool lavender undertones that give it a distinctly fresh, pastel character. It has an LRV of 74.19, placing it in the high-reflectance range where it brightens walls effectively while still reading as a tinted color rather than a neutral. This shade works in bedrooms, bathrooms, and living rooms where a light, cool-toned pink is appropriate without strong saturation.

It coordinates with Silver Mist, Wrought Iron, Whispering Spring, Violet Mist, and Ocean Air, supporting both tonal pastel groupings and contrasting darker anchors.
