What color is Benjamin Moore Lilac Hush?
Benjamin Moore Lilac Hush CSP-490 is a very light, muted off-white with a soft gray-beige cast and a trace of warmth. Its low saturation keeps it quiet on the wall, reading more like a pale putty or weathered plaster than a distinctly colorful neutral. In bright daylight, this shade can appear clean and lightly warmed, while lower or cooler light may bring out its gentle gray undertone. It suits bedrooms, living rooms, and hallways where a white would feel too stark. Pair Lilac Hush with warm oak, natural linen, aged brass, charcoal accents, or deeper mushroom-toned textiles for a grounded, layered look.

LRV of Lilac Hush
Lilac Hush has an LRV of 63.89% 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 63.89%, 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.
