What color is Behr Snowy Pine?

Behr Snowy Pine PPU10-13 is a very light off-white with a soft ivory cast, reading warmer than a crisp gallery white. Its low saturation keeps it understated, while the faint yellow-beige undertone gives walls a gentle, softened appearance rather than a stark finish. In bright daylight, Snowy Pine can look clean and pale; under warm lamps, its creamy side becomes more noticeable. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a light neutral is wanted without the coolness of pure white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, muted sage accents, or warm gray stone for a grounded palette.

What are Behr Snowy Pine undertones?

Snowy Pine is a near-white, 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.

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 85.45%, 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.
