Benjamin Moore

Butter Milk

CC-216 / 303

Butter Milk is a pale yellow with warm undertones. Its LRV of 80.33 keeps it light and reflective in most lighting. It is commonly used in kitchens, nurseries, or sun-exposed rooms where low contrast is desired.

Pair it with Benjamin Moore White Dove or Simply White for clean trim. Saybrook Sage or Hale Navy add muted green or deep blue contrast. In warmer light, the undertone stays present and the color can deepen slightly.
