Benjamin Moore

Powder Blush

1338

Powder Blush is a soft, warm pink from Benjamin Moore with light red undertones that keep it grounded without becoming overly saturated. At an LRV of 71.36, it reflects a high amount of light, making rooms feel open and bright, which is particularly useful in bedrooms, nurseries, and powder rooms with limited natural light. The warmth in its base distinguishes it from cooler pinks and gives it a slightly peachy quality under warm bulbs.

It pairs well with Benjamin Moore's White Dove, Classic Gray, and Peach Parfait for tonal harmony, and with Kendall Charcoal or Hale Navy for sharp contrast.
