Benjamin Moore

Soft Pink

2012-70

Soft Pink is a high-LRV blush at 84.1, reflecting most ambient light and reading nearly white with a faint pink-peach tint on walls. The peach undertone warms it slightly, preventing it from appearing cool or clinical, and becomes more pronounced under incandescent lighting. Its low saturation means it functions closer to a tinted white than a true pink.

It coordinates with Benjamin Moore White Opulence and Ballet White for a warm tonal grouping, while Pale Oak adds a neutral beige bridge. Hale Navy or Kendall Charcoal offer grounding contrast for trim or accent elements.

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.
