What color is Benjamin Moore First Crush?

Benjamin Moore First Crush CSP-310 is a light, softened beige with a warm off-white cast and a subtle muted depth. Its low-saturation appearance keeps it from reading overly creamy or yellow, while the warmth prevents it from feeling stark. In bright daylight, First Crush can look clean and lightly sand-toned; under warmer lamps, it takes on a cozier beige presence. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, halls, and whole-home walls where a gentle neutral backdrop is needed. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, aged brass, soft white trim, and deeper brown or charcoal accents for contrast.

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 71.99%, 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.
