Ribbon Pink vs Pleasing Pink
Ribbon Pink (Benjamin Moore) and Pleasing Pink (PPG) come from different manufacturers. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. The 4-point LRV gap — 71 for Ribbon Pink vs 67 for Pleasing Pink — means Ribbon Pink will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 2.7 puts them in subtle territory — distinguishable in direct comparison, less so from across a room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.
