What color is Behr Looking Glass?
Behr Looking Glass MQ3-45 is a deep blue-green with enough gray in it to keep the color from reading overly bright or tropical. It can look more teal in clear daylight, while north-facing rooms tend to pull out its cooler blue side. On full walls, it gives a dining room, study, or powder room a grounded, slightly moody backdrop; it also has enough depth for kitchen cabinetry or a painted front door. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass to bring out its green undertone, or use walnut and dark navy for a richer look. Warm evening lighting softens the shade and makes it appear a little greener.

LRV of Looking Glass
Looking Glass has an LRV of 74.04% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 74.04%, 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.
