First Light
Benjamin Moore
2102-70
First Light is a soft, milky pink with enough gray in its base to read as a warm neutral rather than a nursery color. It works in bedrooms, living rooms, and entries as a gentler alternative to beige, especially with cream trim, rust, and olive accents. From a distance it can pass for a blushing off-white.

What is the Farrow & Ball equivalent of First Light?
The closest Farrow & Ball match for First Light is Middleton Pink No. 245 (#F6E4E4). No cross-brand match is exact, because each brand mixes its own pigment formulas. Always confirm with a physical sample before specifying a substitute.
Is First Light warm or cool?
First Light is warm, a pale pink with a softening gray undertone that keeps it sophisticated. Its LRV is approximately 78, so it functions like an off-white in terms of brightness while casting a faint rosy glow. Warm evening light amplifies the pink; cool daylight pulls it toward greige-rose. It flatters skin tones and warm metals, which makes it quietly popular for bedrooms and powder rooms.
Why does First Light look different on screen than on the wall?
Screens emit light while paint reflects it, so a hex code cannot capture how lighting, sheen, and surrounding colors shift paint in a real room. Treat #EFE2DE as accurate for digital design work, and use physical samples for final approval.
What LRV does First Light have?
First Light has a Light Reflectance Value of approximately 78, meaning it reflects about 78% of visible light. That places it among lighter colors that keep rooms feeling open and bright.
