What color is Benjamin Moore Lavender Mist?
Benjamin Moore Lavender Mist 2070-60 is a pale, muted lavender with a noticeable cool blue cast. Its light value keeps it airy on broad walls, while the soft violet tint prevents it from reading like a standard gray or icy blue. In north-facing daylight, Lavender Mist can appear a little bluer and more silvery; warmer evening lighting tends to bring out its gentle purple side. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, nurseries, or a quiet home office, especially alongside crisp white trim, dove gray textiles, pale oak, and brushed nickel. For more contrast, pair this shade with deep charcoal, inky navy, or a dark plum accent.

LRV of Lavender Mist
Lavender Mist has an LRV of 63.19% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 63.19%, 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.
