A powder room is small, so it’s the perfect place to be a little bold with color. Soft Blush on the walls gives this tiny space a warm, rosy glow that feels gentle and welcoming the moment you flip the light on. It’s pink without being sweet, with just enough beige in it to keep things grown-up and calm.

To keep that blush from feeling too much, Creamy White on the trim and door frame adds a clean, soft edge that brightens the whole room. Then a hint of Warm Brass in the faucet, mirror frame, or light fixture brings a little shine and pulls everything together. Put the blush on the walls, the creamy white on the trim, and let the brass do the sparkling.

Questions people actually ask

Questions

Is blush too pink for a powder room?

Not this one. Soft Blush has enough warm beige in it to read as a soft, sophisticated glow rather than a candy pink, which is exactly why it works so well in a small, lamp-lit space.

Do the blush and white need to be from the same brand?

No. Pick the blush you love most for the walls and a soft creamy white for the trim, even from different lines. Just hold both against each other in the actual room light before you commit.

What finish should I use in a powder room?

Go with eggshell or satin on the blush walls so they wipe clean, and a semi-gloss on the creamy white trim so it stays crisp next to all that hand-washing.
