Benjamin Moore

Pale Moon

289 / OC-108

Pale Moon from Benjamin Moore is a soft, classic yellow with a clean warm undertone that leans neither too golden nor too green. Its LRV of 76.31 places it in the high-reflectance range, allowing it to amplify available light in kitchens, living rooms, and nurseries. The gentle yellow base provides consistent warmth across different lighting conditions without becoming overpowering.

Pale Moon pairs effectively with Benjamin Moore White Dove and Simply White for a tonal scheme, while Palladian Blue and Saybrook Sage introduce a complementary green contrast. Deeper accents such as Hale Navy can anchor the palette and add visual weight.
