What color is Benjamin Moore Mint Chocolate Chip?
Benjamin Moore Mint Chocolate Chip 436 is a pale, muted green with a soft gray cast and a slight yellow-green undertone. Its low saturation keeps it quiet on broad walls, where it reads more like a washed sage than a crisp pastel. In cooler daylight, Mint Chocolate Chip can appear a touch grayer, while warmer bulbs bring out its gentle leafy warmth. It suits bedrooms, bathrooms, and kitchens, especially alongside warm white trim, natural oak, linen, and brushed nickel. For a little contrast, pair this shade with charcoal accents or deep olive textiles rather than bright, high-chroma colors.

LRV of Mint Chocolate Chip
Mint Chocolate Chip has an LRV of 69.29% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident 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 69.29%, 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.
