What color is Dulux Bleached Lichen 3?
Dulux Bleached Lichen 3 40YY 67/087 is a light, softly muted beige with a noticeable warm cream cast. Its pale depth keeps walls bright without reading as stark white, while the low saturation gives it a gently softened, chalky appearance. In daylight, Bleached Lichen 3 can appear close to a warm off-white; under warmer lamps, its sandy beige character becomes more apparent. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a restrained neutral is needed across large wall areas. Pair this color with natural oak, linen upholstery, woven textures, and deeper accents in mushroom brown, olive, or charcoal.

LRV of Bleached Lichen 3
Bleached Lichen 3 has an LRV of 65.75% 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 65.75%, 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.
