Sherwin Williams

Lighthearted Pink

SW 6568

Lighthearted Pink SW 6568 is a soft warm pink with a subtle red undertone that keeps it from drifting into lavender territory. With an LRV of 71, it reflects a significant amount of light, making it suitable for bedrooms, nurseries, and bathrooms where a warm but pale wall color is desired. Under cooler lighting it may appear slightly more neutral.

It pairs cleanly with Sherwin-Williams Pure White SW 7005 for trim and coordinates with Agreeable Gray SW 7029, Rosé SW 6290, Snowbound SW 7004, and Urbane Bronze SW 7048 in supporting roles.
