What color is Benjamin Moore Lime Sherbet?

Benjamin Moore Lime Sherbet CSP-845 is a light, muted yellow with a soft beige cast and a quiet hint of green. Its low-contrast, sun-faded look keeps it from reading like a bright lemon, giving walls a gentle wash of color instead. In warm light, Lime Sherbet can appear more golden and creamy, while cooler daylight brings out its subtle khaki-leaning undertone. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, mudrooms, and softly colored bedrooms, especially when paired with warm white trim. Try it alongside natural oak, woven cane, aged brass, and clay or olive accents for a relaxed, layered palette.

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 66.8%, 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.
