What color is Benjamin Moore Lemon Shine?

Benjamin Moore Lemon Shine 2020-20 is a vivid, high-saturation yellow with a distinctly warm, golden-orange cast. Its bright depth gives it real visual weight, so it is especially effective on a front door, kitchen island, painted chair, or a single accent wall rather than across every wall in a room. In direct daylight, Lemon Shine reads crisp and energetic; under warmer indoor bulbs, its orange-gold side becomes more noticeable. Pair it with clean white trim for contrast, charcoal or deep navy for definition, or natural oak and woven materials to soften its intensity.

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 52.53%, 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.
