What color is Benjamin Moore Citrus Blast?

Benjamin Moore Citrus Blast 2018-30 is a bright, high-energy orange with a clear golden-yellow cast. Its strong saturation makes it read as sunny and punchy rather than muted, especially in direct daylight. Use it on a front door, kitchen island, painted stool, or a single accent wall where the color can have room to stand out. Crisp white trim sharpens its look, while charcoal, deep navy, and natural wood help ground the intensity. In lower light, Citrus Blast can appear deeper and more orange, giving the surface a warmer, denser presence.

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 51.74%, 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.
