What color is Benjamin Moore Jack Frost?
Benjamin Moore Jack Frost 729 is a pale blue-green with a cool, airy cast and a softly muted finish. Its light value keeps it from feeling heavy, while the green-blue undertone is clear enough to give white trim a gentle contrast. In daylight, Jack Frost can read as a clean, watery aqua; under warmer lamps, it may appear slightly softer and less blue. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, or bedroom walls where a light, fresh color is wanted without using a stark white. Pair it with crisp white, pale gray, light oak, brushed nickel, or charcoal accents for a grounded look.

LRV of Jack Frost
Jack Frost has an LRV of 73.14% 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 73.14%, 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.
