Benjamin Moore

Sheer Bliss

CSP-545

Sheer Bliss registers as a light, cool blue with noticeable gray undertones that keep it from reading overly saturated. At an LRV of 70.58, it reflects a significant amount of light and will read brighter on larger wall surfaces than it appears on a swatch. The gray base prevents it from turning sweet or juvenile, anchoring it firmly in a neutral-cool range.

It coordinates well with Benjamin Moore White Heron for trim, Silver Satin on adjacent walls, Hale Navy as a deeper accent, Pale Oak for warm contrast, and Horizon for a tonal blue scheme.

Sheer Bliss 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.
