Valspar

Lively Lilac

V038-2

Lively Lilac is a light lavender with a clear pink-violet base. It feels sweet but not pale enough to disappear. A bedroom, creative room, or powder bath can handle the visible color.

White trim sharpens the freshness. Warm wood gives it a grounded read. In yellow light, the pink side can grow stronger, so check it at night. Sample near bedding first.

Lively Lilac 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.
