TONAL STYLE
The look of Venetian plaster can now be achieved with an easy-to-apply lime wash product from JH Wall Paints. Both antibacterial and environmentally friendly, JH Lime Wall Paint creates a matte, velvety finish with mottling and tonal variations. Launched in 2020, the California brand offers the paint in 74 color choices. jhwallpaints.com

Product Watch - CURATED COLOR

Clare, a direct-to-consumer paint brand, offers 60 shades curated by founder, designer and TV personality Nicole Gibbons. Convenient peel-and-stick color swatches are available and Clare Color Genius, an online quiz, helps customers hone in on the right hue for a specific space. clare.com
