Benjamin Moore

Blue Veil

875

Blue Veil is a very light blue with cool undertones. Its LRV of 73.8 reflects a high amount of light, so it stays bright on walls. It works in bedrooms, bathrooms, or ceilings where a pale blue is needed.

Sea Foam and Ocean Air keep a soft blue-green range, while Spring Mint or Lavender Mist add gentle color shifts. Hale Navy or Stormy Monday can add contrast.

Blue Veil in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
