Benjamin Moore

Where Irish Cream belongs to PPG's range, Balboa Mist is a Benjamin Moore color. Irish Cream (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Balboa Mist (LRV 66), a difference of 14 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
