What color is Benjamin Moore Egyptian Green?

Benjamin Moore Egyptian Green 2043-40 is a clear, medium-bright turquoise green with a noticeable blue cast and fresh aqua character. Its saturation gives it enough presence for a powder room, laundry room, or playful kitchen island, while still reading cleanly on a larger wall. In bright daylight, this color can appear more vivid and blue-leaning; lower or warmer light may bring forward its greener side. Pair Egyptian Green with crisp white trim, pale oak, light terrazzo, or sandy beige textiles to keep the look grounded. For a bolder contrast, try it alongside deep navy, charcoal, or matte black hardware.

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 43.68%, 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.
