I opened it with trepidation and wanted to sigh with happiness when I opened it. It is not like my swatch card (which by the way has been sitting in the garage for at least 6 months). It is a beautiful shade of white. Before leaving for work I got out my paint brush to put sample spots on walls. It does not carry the yellow I see in Simply White or the green I see in White Dove. I will play with this but wanted to let you know that I was very pleased with the color.

For example, I compared our white color options with Simply White because I was familiar with it. Compared to Cypress Springs, Simply White is yellow. But at our old house, it read as white as the snow. We have found the ECOS color swatch and actual color to be the same. After doing much research on green paint companies, I felt ECOS had a good track record, were transparent with their product ingredients and people were there to talk to you, which is great. Good luck!

The happiness is the thing to cling to and etch on the tablet of our mind. Now Thai I have said that I have a question. We redid our floors last year and it was important we used non toxic finishes. We used ECO products mainly because we were taking a trip through Spartansburg and could visit the warehouse. I was greatly pleased with the no odor but not so much with my husbands choice of the top coat. I like no sheen or matte, and love unfinished but him not so much. Which brings me to my question. I looked at the paint deck they gave us as I want to go with all white walls as I like art and fabrics and fresh flowers to give me color in a home. I looked at the Cyrus Springs color and see light beige but your beautiful photos show it the color I really would like. Can you say that it is close to the swatch or your pictures? And how would you compare it to Simply White. I liked the Natura by BM Paints but that has a terrible odor too. (I have a sensitive nose!)
