What color is Benjamin Moore Cool Mint?

Benjamin Moore Cool Mint 582 is a very light mint green with a soft blue cast that keeps it feeling clean rather than sugary. Its high lightness makes it well suited to walls in bathrooms, bedrooms, laundry rooms, or sunlit kitchens where a gentle wash of color is wanted. In bright daylight, Cool Mint reads airy and fresh, while lower or warmer lighting can make its pale green undertone appear a little quieter. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, light gray stone, or brushed nickel for a clear, lightly coastal look. It can also be used on cabinetry or a painted ceiling when the room has enough natural light to support such a delicate shade.

Cool Mint has an LRV of 81.16% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of lightWhy LRV is important?

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 81.16%, 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.
