What color is Benjamin Moore Shooting Star?

Benjamin Moore Shooting Star 304 is a light, creamy yellow with a clear sun-warmed cast drawn from its #FCE6B0 color value. It reads soft rather than sharp, with enough golden warmth to keep white trim from feeling stark beside it. In bright daylight, Shooting Star can look pale and buttery, while lower or warmer light brings out its richer yellow tone. It suits kitchens, breakfast nooks, children’s rooms, and hallways where a gentle dose of color can brighten broad wall areas. Pair it with warm whites, natural oak, woven textures, or muted blue-gray accents for contrast.

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 76.63%, 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.
