Frost vs Winds Breath
Both from Behr's palette. Frost reads as white, while Winds Breath reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Frost (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than Winds Breath (LRV 74), a difference of 12 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Frost runs green while Winds Breath is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 5.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Bathroom
Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Frost reflects noticeably more light off the walls, making the space read more open than Winds Breath.

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.
