What color is Behr Champagne Cocktail?
Behr Champagne Cocktail M310-3 is a light, softened beige with a clear golden-yellow cast that keeps it warmer than a typical greige. Its pale value reflects plenty of light, while the muted saturation prevents the color from reading bright or buttery. In north-facing rooms, Champagne Cocktail may appear more subdued and khaki-beige; warm afternoon sun brings out its creamy, honeyed side. It suits living room walls, bedrooms, and hallways where a gentle warm neutral can connect oak, rattan, linen, and aged brass. Pair it with soft ivory trim, deeper olive accents, or medium brown wood for definition.

LRV of Champagne Cocktail
Champagne Cocktail has an LRV of 67.06% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 67.06%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
