What color is Valspar UK Green Reflection?

Valspar UK Green Reflection R225F is a pale, light-filled green with a noticeable yellow cast, giving it a fresh, spring-like appearance rather than a blue-toned mint feel. Its high lightness makes it well suited to smaller kitchens, bathrooms, utility rooms, or bedrooms where a brighter wall color is wanted without using white. In direct daylight, Green Reflection can look cleaner and more luminous, while warmer evening lighting may draw out its soft yellow-green undertone. Pair it with warm white trim, pale oak, natural woven textures, and muted clay or sand accents for an easy, grounded scheme. It can also bring a gentle wash of color to cupboard fronts or a garden-facing exterior detail.
