What color is Benjamin Moore Mauve Hint?
Benjamin Moore Mauve Hint 878 is a very light, warm off-white with a faint rosy-beige cast. Its low saturation keeps the color quiet on broad walls, where it can read almost neutral while still softening stark white trim and furnishings. In cool daylight, Mauve Hint may appear slightly grayer and more muted; warmer lamps tend to bring out its subtle blush warmth. It suits bedrooms, powder rooms, and living areas where a pale neutral is preferred over a crisp white. Pair it with creamy whites, pale greige, natural oak, linen upholstery, and brushed brass for a gentle, layered palette.

LRV of Mauve Hint
Mauve Hint has an LRV of 76.6% 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 76.6%, 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.
