Sherwin Williams

Honey Blush

SW 6660

Honey Blush is a warm orange with creamy undertones, registering an LRV of 67. This high reflectance keeps it light and approachable as a wall color, reading as a soft peach-apricot rather than a bold orange. It works well in south- or west-facing bedrooms and living rooms where warm tones are reinforced by natural light.

The creamy base softens the orange character noticeably. It coordinates with Sherwin-Williams Alabaster, Caviar, Renwick Rose Beige, Toasty, and Pure White in warm neutral schemes.
