What color is Benjamin Moore Misty Lilac?
Benjamin Moore Misty Lilac 2071-70 is a very light, low-saturation lavender with a soft gray-white base and a noticeable violet cast. Its pale value keeps it from reading overly purple, making it well suited to full walls in bedrooms, nurseries, dressing areas, or quiet reading corners. In cool daylight, Misty Lilac can appear cleaner and slightly more silvery, while warmer bulbs tend to bring out its delicate lilac tint. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale gray textiles, light oak, or brushed nickel for a restrained palette. It can also add a subtle wash of color to cabinetry or a ceiling when a nearly neutral lavender is desired.

LRV of Misty Lilac
Misty Lilac has an LRV of 77.95% 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 77.95%, 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.
