Benjamin Moore

Limelight

2025-40

Limelight sits at the intersection of yellow and green, with a slightly muted quality that keeps it from reading too sharp. The green undertone is apparent in most lighting conditions, pulling the yellow back toward chartreuse rather than letting it lean warm. With an LRV of 68.14, it reflects a good amount of light without feeling washed out.

It coordinates well with White Dove or Soft Fern for a tonal approach, while Hale Navy or Charcoal Slate provide strong contrast. Coral Reef works as an unexpected but effective accent.
