What color is Benjamin Moore Cream Froth?
Benjamin Moore Cream Froth OC-97 is a very light, warm off-white with a soft creamy cast rather than a stark white finish. Its pale ivory-beige character keeps walls looking bright while taking the edge off cooler materials such as gray stone, white tile, or brushed nickel. In direct daylight, Cream Froth can read as a clean, lightly warmed neutral; under warm interior lighting, its cream undertone becomes more noticeable. It is a practical choice for living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and ceilings where a gentle contrast from crisp white trim is preferred. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, muted clay accents, or deeper brown and charcoal details for definition.

LRV of Cream Froth
Cream Froth has an LRV of 86.22% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 86.22%, 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.
