What color is Benjamin Moore November Rain?

Benjamin Moore November Rain OC-50 is a light, muted off-white with a gentle gray-beige cast and a soft hint of warmth. Its low-contrast, lightly weathered look keeps it from reading stark, especially against bright white trim. In cooler daylight, November Rain can appear more subdued and lightly gray, while incandescent or afternoon light brings forward its creamy, softly khaki undertone. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and whole-home walls where a quiet neutral is needed without a crisp white finish. Pair it with warm oak, natural linen, aged brass, charcoal accents, or deeper mushroom-toned textiles for a grounded palette.

What are Benjamin Moore November Rain undertones?

November Rain is a light, very muted off-white that reads mainly as a soft yellow-beige neutral rather than a crisp white. The supplied digital color sample shows only a subtle yellow bias, so its undertone can shift in appearance with surrounding colors and lighting. Benjamin Moore describes it as “misted with a touch of green,” which suggests a restrained green influence beneath the visible warm off-white family rather than a clearly green-looking paint. Warm artificial light may bring out its gentle warmth, while cool daylight can make it look more neutral and subdued.

LRV of November Rain

November Rain has an LRV of 71.03% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 71.03%, 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.
