About Amelia Blush

Amelia Blush (085) is a very light warm white from Benjamin Moore with a warm yellow undertone. With an LRV of 81, Amelia Blush reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.

In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Amelia Blush's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for whole-house walls, living rooms, bedrooms and trim with a deeper wall color. It's very close to Parchment (OC-78); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.

In strong south light Amelia Blush can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.
