What color is Benjamin Moore Lavender Lipstick?

Benjamin Moore Lavender Lipstick 2072-50 is a light, muted lavender-violet with a softly grayed cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet or bright. Its gentle blue-violet lean is most noticeable in clear daylight, while warmer evening light can make the shade appear quieter and more subdued. Use it on bedroom or dressing-room walls for color that feels present without overwhelming the room. Lavender Lipstick also suits a painted vanity, built-in shelving, or a single accent wall alongside soft white trim, pale oak, charcoal textiles, and brushed nickel details.

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 43.82%, 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.
