What color is Benjamin Moore Spearmint Ice?
Benjamin Moore Spearmint Ice 596 is a light, softly muted mint green with a clean, cool-leaning cast. Its pale value keeps it airy on larger walls, while the gentle green tint is noticeable enough to add color without reading loud or sugary. In daylight, Spearmint Ice can appear fresh and lightly blue-green; warmer bulbs tend to bring out its softer, creamier side. It suits bathrooms, bedrooms, and laundry rooms, as well as painted cabinetry where a quiet wash of color is wanted. Pair it with crisp white trim, pale oak, brushed nickel, or deep charcoal accents for contrast.
LRV of Spearmint Ice
Spearmint Ice has an LRV of 78.16% 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 78.16%, 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.
