About Rosy Tan
Rosy Tan (2091-50) is a deep, medium-strength pink from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 39, Rosy Tan 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 Rosy Tan'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 Bouquet Rose (2172-50), it's cooler.
How Rosy Tan changes with the light
Rosy Tan has a strong warm undertone that balances cool north light well. In strong south or west sun it can look more golden, so check a sample at midday and in the late afternoon.
North-facing rooms
Rosy Tan's warmth balances the cool north light, which is why warmer colors are the safe pick for north rooms.
East-facing rooms
Rosy Tan will look warmer and brighter in the morning and cooler and grayer by afternoon; check a sample at both times.
South-facing rooms
In strong south light Rosy Tan can turn noticeably more yellow or orange; test a sample at midday.
West-facing rooms
Rosy Tan will glow warmer in the late afternoon, so check it at sunset if you want to avoid a strong yellow cast.
