What color is Benjamin Moore Mannequin Cream?
Benjamin Moore Mannequin Cream OC-92 is a light, softly warmed cream with a noticeable buttery-yellow cast and a gentle hint of beige. Its high brightness keeps it from reading heavy, while the warm undertone gives white-adjacent spaces more color and softness. In north-facing or cooler light, it may appear like a quiet pale ivory; direct afternoon sun can bring forward its creamy golden side. Use it on living room, bedroom, or hallway walls where stark white would feel too crisp. It pairs naturally with warm white trim, light oak, woven linen, tan leather, and muted clay or olive accents.

What are Benjamin Moore Mannequin Cream undertones?
Mannequin Cream is a near-white, muted cream with a light, low-saturation appearance and a clear yellow-leaning color direction. It reads warmer than a plain white, while remaining soft rather than strongly buttery or golden. Benjamin Moore describes it as having “muted cream undertones,” which fits its visibly pale cream main family rather than a stark white look. Warm artificial light may bring out more of its creamy warmth, while cool daylight can make it appear cleaner and closer to an off-white.

LRV of Mannequin Cream
Mannequin Cream has an LRV of 81.62% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 81.62%, 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.
