Lime Twist Technical Profile

What color is Lime Twist? It's a light cool yellow with the hex code #C6D624. Colors similar to Lime Twist include Behr Anime, Vista Paint Sour Lime, Benjamin Moore Snow Cone Green. Lime Twist has a cool (green) undertone, which affects how it pairs with trim, flooring, and adjacent wall colors. At LRV 60, Lime Twist sits in the comfortable mid-light range — bright enough for living areas yet soft enough for bedrooms, and adaptable across most lighting conditions. Pair it with crisp whites like Pure White for trim, oak or maple woods, and brass hardware. Navy or deep teal accents balance the brightness without competing for attention.
