What color is Benjamin Moore Cotton Tail?

Benjamin Moore Cotton Tail 2155-70 is a very light creamy off-white with a clear, soft yellow warmth. Its pale value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the ivory cast prevents it from reading as stark white. In bright daylight, Cotton Tail can look nearly white with a buttery glow; under warm lamps, its creamier side becomes more apparent. It suits kitchens, dining rooms, and bedrooms where a clean white would feel too crisp. Pair it with natural oak, woven fibers, warm brass, and muted green or clay-toned accents for a grounded, gently warm palette.

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 86.14%, 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.
