What color is Benjamin Moore Pineapple Smoothy?
Benjamin Moore Pineapple Smoothy 142 is a light, creamy yellow with a soft peach-beige cast. Its high brightness keeps it airy on walls, while the warm undertone gives it more presence than a plain off-white. In morning or north-facing light, it can read as a gentle buttery neutral; warmer afternoon light brings out its peachy glow. Use Pineapple Smoothy in kitchens, breakfast rooms, nurseries, or hallways where a pale warm color can soften the edges of the space. Pair it with warm white trim, natural oak, woven fibers, muted terracotta, or dusty green accents for a grounded palette.

LRV of Pineapple Smoothy
Pineapple Smoothy has an LRV of 74.19% 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 74.19%, 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.
