Whipped Mint

6006-7A

Whipped Mint is a bright pale yellow green, closer to pistachio cream than blue mint. The pale pistachio cast works best near white tile and light maple. Use it in kitchens, baths, laundry rooms, or small bedrooms where light color should still feel fresh.

The yellow-green note pairs well with white tile and light wood. In warm bulbs, it can look creamier. Avoid very pink beige finishes nearby, because they can make the green feel sharper.

Whipped Mint 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.
