What color is Behr Frost?
Behr Frost 57 is a very pale off-white with a soft gray cast and a faint greenish undertone visible beside warmer creams. Its high lightness keeps walls looking open and clean without reading as stark, blue-white white. In bright daylight, Frost appears nearly white; under softer evening lighting, its muted gray-green note becomes a little more noticeable. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas where a quiet, low-contrast backdrop is wanted. Pair it with warm oak, natural linen, matte black hardware, or deeper olive and charcoal accents for definition.
LRV of Frost
Frost has an LRV of 86.55% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 86.55%, 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.
