Benjamin Moore

Smashing Pink

1303

Smashing Pink is a warm, light coral-pink with noticeable orange undertones that keep it from reading as a true cool pink. Its LRV of 61.55 means it reflects a moderate-to-high amount of light, allowing it to function as a wall color without significantly darkening a room. The warm base becomes more pronounced under incandescent lighting and slightly muted under cooler LED sources.

Simply White and Chantilly Lace provide crisp, high-contrast trim options. Coral Gables and Rosy Peach extend the warm pink family in adjacent tones, while Newburyport Blue offers a cooler complementary counterpoint.

Smashing Pink in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
