Benjamin Moore

Lime Accent

407

Lime Accent (2024-40) is a very pale green with a noticeable yellow-green undertone that keeps it from reading as a neutral white. At an LRV of 81.39, it reflects a high amount of light while still registering as distinctly tinted on the wall. The green cast is subtle but consistent across lighting conditions.

It pairs naturally with Silver Half Dollar or Quiet Moments for a cool-toned scheme, and Rainforest Foliage or Newburyport Blue provide strong contrast when a more defined palette is needed.

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.
