Sherwin Williams

Cosmetic Peach

SW 6618

Cosmetic Peach (hex #F3C1AB) is a soft, warm orange with subtle pink undertones and an LRV of 60, giving it a relatively high light reflectance that keeps rooms feeling open and well-lit. The pink influence distinguishes it from a straight peach, lending a slightly rosy cast that reads warmer under incandescent light. It is light enough to function as a wall-to-wall color without closing in a space.

Sherwin-Williams Coral Reef and Jovial offer warmer analogous pairings, while Sherwin-Williams Smoky Blue provides a cool contrast. Sherwin-Williams Turkish Coffee introduces a deep grounding tone.
