Pink Blossom

2081-40

Pink Blossom is a subdued pink with underlying red tones and noticeable depth. Its LRV of 36.81 gives it a slightly heavier presence than lighter blushes. It works well in bedrooms and living areas where moderate color is appropriate.

Sundress and Misty Lilac support a soft tonal range. Midnight Navy or Forest Green add contrast, while Swiss Coffee keeps transitions smooth.
