What color is Benjamin Moore Vanilla Milkshake?
Benjamin Moore Vanilla Milkshake OC-59 is a very light off-white with a faint creamy cast, created by its slightly softened yellow-beige base. At #ECECE3, it reads clean and pale rather than deeply warm, with low saturation that keeps walls from looking overtly colored. In bright daylight, Vanilla Milkshake can appear close to a gentle white, while lower or warmer artificial light may bring out its subtle creaminess. It suits bedrooms, living areas, and kitchens where a softer alternative to stark white is wanted. Pair it with light oak, natural linen, muted sage, soft gray, or matte black details for definition.
LRV of Vanilla Milkshake
Vanilla Milkshake has an LRV of 80.97% 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 80.97%, 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.
