Alabaster vs Mauve Hint
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Alabaster belongs to the beige-greige family and Mauve Hint to the beige-pink family. Alabaster (LRV 85) reflects noticeably more light than Mauve Hint (LRV 77), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Alabaster runs yellow while Mauve Hint is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.7 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.

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.
