Benjamin Moore Mermaid's Tale 577 is a light, fresh aqua-green with a noticeable mint cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the blue-green direction gives it a clean, cool-leaning appearance rather than a yellowed pastel look. In daylight, this color can read crisp and watery; under warmer bulbs, its green side may become more apparent. It suits bathrooms, laundry rooms, sunrooms, or a child’s bedroom where a pale color with more character than white is wanted. Pair Mermaid's Tale with soft white trim, pale oak, woven natural fibers, and muted coral or peach accents for contrast.
