About Sunlit Coral
Sunlit Coral (2170-60) is a light pink from Benjamin Moore with a warm peach undertone. With an LRV of 76, Sunlit Coral 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 Sunlit Coral'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. It's very close to Soft Shell (015); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
