What color is Benjamin Moore Hazy Lilac?
Benjamin Moore Hazy Lilac 2116-40 is a muted, mid-tone lavender with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than sugary. Its soft purple character can read a little cooler in north-facing rooms, while warmer bulbs may bring forward a faint dusty mauve quality. Hazy Lilac suits bedroom walls, a quiet reading nook, or a powder room where a fuller color feels appropriate without becoming overly bright. Pair it with soft white trim, charcoal accents, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, understated contrast. On cabinetry or a single accent wall, this shade adds color while maintaining a subdued, matte-looking presence.

LRV of Hazy Lilac
Hazy Lilac has an LRV of 29.15% and refers to Medium 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 29.15%, 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.
