About Paradise Pink
Paradise Pink (2078-40) is a deep, medium-strength pink from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 35, Paradise Pink absorbs more light than it reflects, so it works best in rooms with good natural light or where you want a cozier feel.
In north-facing rooms the cool daylight tones down Paradise Pink's warmth, so it can read a little grayer; south- and west-facing light brings the warmth forward. It's a good fit for bedrooms, nurseries, powder rooms and accent walls. Next to Springtime Bloom (2079-40), it's cooler and more muted.
