I just painted my entire interior in BM Sea Salt and I LOVE LOVE LOVE it. I'm in a full home Reno and everyone loves the color and keep asking me if it's beige or grey. The painters are even in awe with the richness, quality and color. This is a TRUE Greige in my opinion. It's amazing how it just works in every room any time of the day!! It's a STUNNING neutral color!

[@LexiVB]

Love the CSP colors! Thank you for highlighting cashmere wrap - such a gorgeous neutral pink

[@lovepilie]

I love the way you talk about paint colors, I feel like it's really going to help me make a choice! I am very sensitive to color, so I need a complex pigment that evolves with daylight to feel good

[@mightyboards8912]

Awesome video James! Team Mighty Board

[@w104ssc]

I just painted my guest bedroom Sea Salt and I loved it so much I wished I had done my whole house in this color. So calm and relaxing-love, love, love! Can't get enough!

[@stephaniereck8081]

One whole floor of my house was painted Sherwin Williams Sea Salt when I moved in, and eight years later, I still love it!

[@jamaramcrae5495]

You sound like you’ve been under the weather. Hope you’re feeling better and thanks for the video. You always keep me excited about painting.

[@StitchingWithLove]

My ensuite is Sea Salt with white tile and a lovely stormy dark charcoal feature wall. It looks lovely just off our Benjamin Moore Cosmopolitan bedroom.

[@ceecee8757]

James, you made me laugh and I nearly spewed my water out @5:02!! 🤣

[@mangos2888]

I have CSP all over my house, but am standing by Steam (I know...Affinity line) & French Macaroon. Cashmere Wrap & Wallstreet look gorgeous w this Sea Salt.

[@michaels793]

Can you do a colour review of the CSP colour you mention -- Cake Batter -- please?

[@laraffinee]

I ADORE the Benjamin Moore CSP Colors! I had large swatches of them all over my house when choosing to paint the whole house - I love how the color shifts as the light changes...some might not like that...I found that I LOVE it. I chose Cake Batter over Sea Salt for the Living room and hall way because they needed the warmth, then Ocean Breeze, Stoneware, and Melted Butter for Bedrooms. I chose the regular Garden Oasis for the Kitchen, because I couldn't get the right green from the CSP except for Chimichurri for painted door. Tranquility for the bathrooms - did all in Tranquility - so lovely. The CSP colors are wonderful and I hope your review more of them!

[@karenryder6317]

What are CSP colors?

[@afternoononthedock]

Wall Street is my favorite, might be good for an office, wonder how it plays in north facing room? Thanks!

[@leticiavillarreal3689]

Wall Street is my favorite. I’m thinking of it as an accent wall in the dining room, hmmm maybe?!

[@margaretjudice8944]

I like cashmere wrap and wall street. Thank you for sharing!

[@karenryder6317]

Funny, I like those the least. I like linen and cake batter.

[@DelindaHenderson]

I love Sea Salt by Benjamin Moore!! We used it in our master bedroom! It looks very sleek but not cold and not too gray. It is perfect Greige but leans a wee bit cooler in our north facing room! It does look like a sandy beach. I love it and I am thinking of using it in our south facing guest bedroom!

[@thepaintpeople]

Thanks for sharing!!

[@revagreen2303]

Favourite whole house colour is Revere Pewter.

[@Camie.in.Philly]

I'm looking for a color to go into my small den. I get bright light from a single window for most of the day. I've got an orange sofa (don't talk about me), a yellow with a hint of red eggshell swing chair, a small cream colored desk top with gold legs and a bookcase. I'm looking for a color that will stand out but stand down. Do you think the cashmere wrap one will work on my walls? By the way, the only trim is at the floor level.

[@jordanmcdonaldmcdonald6867]

What color is the wall behind you, I really like it!

[@AA-cp8ry]

Wondering same thing!

[@ceecee8757]

@@AA-cp8ry I believe it's OC-50 November Rain by BM. He mentioned it in one of his videos about how he choose his new house paint colors and we all know James is a HUGE fan of greeniege! 😆

[@leeannoneal4847]

I’m guessing Sea Salt?

[@kathrynwitte3398]

I wish he wasn’t all about the BM because it isn’t available in my county.

[@kathrynwitte3398]

@@ceecee8757 that’s not even a greeneige, it’s more of a greenay.

[@gailremp8389]

Oh. Greige undertones Red. Yeah I won’t like that but thanks I pick the other one to use in a small space but good information Thanks.

[@juliethompson8888]

Would this color work with natural wood molding and window

[@jerridorr107]

I’m getting October Mist for a hack I’m doing with an entry piece of furniture

[@jasong2590]

Really loved the overly dark color at 5:03!

[@emilyfiggins98]

Thanks for the review! What is the color behind you?

[@maryelderschleiss7833]

Dilemma. I have decorators White (BM) kitchen cabinets. My LR/dR are adjacent and there will be two decorators white cabinets on either side of fireplace. Can I use SW Sea Salt for my walls? If okay, what about trim? Many thanks.

[@pawlieblog7967]

Love cashmere wrap

[@jacqueline-11]

I have 10 BM samples painted all over my wall, All the colors shifted blue or purple. I haven’t tried Sea Salt, I hate beige (sorry beige lover’s). The room is long and narrow with oak floors leaning orange, do you think it will lean neutral?

[@johannechampagne7332]

Favourite is Wall Street.

[@Schwiebert_Adventures]

Great video! What happened to your fragrance channel?

[@zsuzsuspetals]

The sea salt colors in your video look more gray than the sea salt in my bathroom. But my bathroom gets little sunlight. The paint looks more blue/green in there. I love the color but I think it could get lost in a bigger room that has more light.

[@leesh2684]

James Do you have a cold / virus ? Thanks for all you do.

[@smileyginger1]

the page where you were switching the color preview in day, ambient, etc lighting. is that at the Benjamin Moore website? Our LR faces due east with a big picture window and the lighting changes dramatically during the day. that would come in handy

[@thepaintpeople]

Yea! The Benjamin Moore website has the lighting visualizer for every Color!

[@smileyginger1]

@@thepaintpeople thank you!! between the lighting shift and the color temp shift from cooler NE light in winter to warmer SE light in the summer has had me worried about changing from white to a color for a long time.

[@supermusclemaniac1]

What is the color behind you?

[@hsmd4533]

1:28 I think what you meant to say was “I tend to use Aura mora and mora these days”.

[@karenryder6317]

What is Aura?

[@debrapahl7573]

Isn't that what Farrow&Ball does ?

[@maryanna71701]

I love blue-greens and grays, but Sea Salt is just not one of my favorites. Not saturated enough to satisfy me. Cashmere Wrap is lovely. Wall Street is AMAZING to me!!!

[@jeffyv08]

I like blue-green and grays too. Since you said you don't like Sea Salt, which color do you like?

[@KB-hx3px]

I hate any kind of gray paint in the walls.

[@tessjones5987]

Wall Street is the winner for me.

[@Jen39x]

I was a huge fan of the Sherwin William Sea Salt Looking for a color my condo that is very cold and this maybe the color I want

[@SR98889]

Sea salt is my bathroom color

[@lisajel52]

What is CSP? 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@whiteserpent6753]

Benjamin moore has “color stories” colors that use no black, gray, or white colorants (iirc) and use a whole bunch of other colorants. Therefore they have lots of undertones. They are exclusive to the Aura paint. Don’t know about anyone else, but had a horrible experience with the one I tried (faded violet) Maybe the BM store did a lousy job of mixing it, or maybe this is just a characteristic of these- but it wouldn’t stay mixed- I was constantly stirring it and the colorants would separate on the wall after you painted it. Not eager to try another one.

[@gailremp8389]

SW vs BM..Gid ..why..but thanks.

[@nancypickering8217]

Cashmere Wrap

[@karenryder6317]

Way too pink to be neutral.

[@magicgordo4878]

This dude is awesome and so is his sales pitch. His jumpcuts suck..

[@revagreen2303]

Cashmere Wrap way too dusty pinky! Not a fan!

[@latitude1904]

Who can afford Aura though??

[@ceecee8757]

It's definitely an investment!

[@thoughtlesskills]

BM is for 'elite' clients. The people who don't care about cost because it doesn't really effect them. Regular people who just want a decent repaint are generally turned off by the cost.

[@Californians_go_home]

You won’t get depth in any other paint like Benjamin Moore. I’m not elite, I just have good taste. Some things are just worth paying for.

[@tngalvols1184]

I'm definitely not a fan greeneige..

[@thoughtlesskills]

Aura is for people with a lot of disposable income. BM's only real winner for me is Advance.

[@kirathecanecorso6776]

Not for me I prefer SW Sea Salt and Natural Lin r n..

[@kenjd57]

Good job. Like Wall Street

[@shoshanna8475]

pasteled bile... no

[@fairamir1]

Over 2 1/2 years of grays....and still talking about grays...GRRRRR!

[@geesahn1]

2.5? More like 12.5

[@vivavita3769]

$ at $8000 to paint my walls, for some of us gray is here to stay.

[@abutterfly7975]

I feel like that’s BS that you have to use Aura with certain colours. You can take any companies paint colours and pair them with any companies paint. Seems like a gimmick to get you to buy the more expensive paint, maybe I’m wrong.
