What color is Benjamin Moore Mauve Mist?
Benjamin Moore Mauve Mist 1264 is a muted mid-tone pink with a softly grayed cast that keeps it from reading overly sweet. Its #BE999A color value suggests a gentle rosy warmth, with a subtle beige-gray influence that can make it appear dustier in lower light. Use it on bedroom or powder room walls for color that feels present without becoming bright, or on a painted dresser for a quiet vintage note. Creamy off-whites, weathered oak, warm brass, and charcoal accents give Mauve Mist a grounded, edited look. In brighter daylight, this shade may show more of its pink character, while evening light can bring out its subdued, earthy quality.

LRV of Mauve Mist
Mauve Mist has an LRV of 36.4% and refers to Medium 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 36.4%, 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.
