About Sharon Rose
Sharon Rose (039) is a deep, medium-strength pink from Benjamin Moore. With an LRV of 40, Sharon Rose 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 Sharon Rose'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 Custis Salmon (CW-215), it's cooler and more muted.
