What color is Benjamin Moore Shimmering Lime?
Benjamin Moore Shimmering Lime 2030-50 is a light, clear yellow-green with a soft, sunlit cast. Its pale value keeps the color airy on broad walls, while the lime influence gives it more presence than a typical pastel green. In bright daylight, this shade can read fresh and lightly citrusy; under warmer artificial light, its yellow side may come forward. Shimmering Lime suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, or a lively accent wall, especially alongside crisp white trim, pale wood, and natural woven textures. For contrast, pair it with charcoal details or deep blue-green accents rather than overly warm beige.

LRV of Shimmering Lime
Shimmering Lime has an LRV of 68.53% 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 68.53%, 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.
