What color is Benjamin Moore Tint of Mint?

Benjamin Moore Tint of Mint 851 is a very light, low-saturation green-tinted off-white with a subtle yellow-green cast. Its high brightness keeps it close to a soft white, while the muted green note becomes more noticeable beside crisp white trim or cool gray finishes. In daylight, Tint of Mint can read fresh and lightly botanical; under warmer bulbs, it may lean a little creamier. It is well suited to bedrooms, bathrooms, laundry rooms, or kitchen walls where a plain white would feel too stark. Pair it with natural oak, pale stone, brushed nickel, and soft white textiles for a quiet, lightly layered look.

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 81.68%, 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.
