What color is Benjamin Moore Light Daffodil?
Benjamin Moore Light Daffodil 2027-60 is a very pale yellow with a soft, creamy cast and little visible orange influence. Its high lightness keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the muted yellow undertone prevents it from reading as plain off-white. In bright daylight, it can appear closer to a clean pastel yellow; lower or warmer lighting brings out its gentler, buttery side. Light Daffodil suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, nurseries, and sunlit hallways where a subtle wash of color is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale natural wood, woven fibers, or quiet blue-gray accents for contrast.

LRV of Light Daffodil
Light Daffodil has an LRV of 82.2% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 82.2%, 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.
