What color is Benjamin Moore Halo?

Benjamin Moore Halo OC-46 is a pale, muted off-white with a soft gray-beige cast and a gentle hint of warmth. Its low saturation keeps it from reading creamy or yellow, while the slightly deepened base gives it more presence than a stark white. In daylight, Halo can appear lightly gray and airy; warmer bulbs tend to bring out its subtle beige undertone. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and open-plan spaces where a quiet wall color is needed without the sharpness of bright white. Pair it with natural oak, linen upholstery, aged brass, charcoal accents, or deeper mushroom-toned trim for a grounded 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 71.74%, 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.
