Finish: Matte in living rooms and bedrooms for a soft, premium feel; washable satin in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Good to Know

Paint a sample on two or three walls first, since pink tones shift with the light through the day. It covers cleanly, but light walls show scuffs in busy areas, so keep a little paint aside for touch-ups.
