What color is Benjamin Moore Crystal Blue?
Benjamin Moore Crystal Blue 2051-70 is a very light blue-green with a clean, airy appearance and little visual weight. Its soft cyan cast can read slightly bluer in cool daylight, while warmer bulbs may bring out a gentler minty note. This shade is well suited to bathroom walls, a light-filled bedroom, or a laundry room where a pale color can keep the room from feeling closed in. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or matte black details for contrast. Because it is so light, Crystal Blue is usually more effective across broad walls than as a small accent, where its subtle color may be less noticeable.

LRV of Crystal Blue
Crystal Blue has an LRV of 78.44% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 78.44%, 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.
