What color is Behr Moss Mist?
Behr Moss Mist S380-1 is a very light, low-saturation shade with a soft gray base and a faint yellow-green cast. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the muted coloring prevents it from reading stark or icy. In daylight, Moss Mist may show more of its gentle green undertone; under warm lamps, it can look closer to a softened off-white with a subtle earthy note. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and quiet living areas, especially alongside warm white trim, pale oak, linen, and brushed nickel. For contrast, pair this color with deeper olive greens, charcoal gray, or muted clay accents.

What are Behr Moss Mist undertones?
Moss Mist is a light, very muted cream. The HEX sample has a subtle yellow bias, but its low chroma turns that hue into a neutral-looking color rather than a clear yellow. Warm bulbs can make it look creamier or more golden, while cool daylight may mute that warmth and pull it closer to beige or greige.

LRV of Moss Mist
Moss Mist has an LRV of 73.44% 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 73.44%, 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.
