Bare vs Mayonnaise

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Bare reads as beige, while Mayonnaise reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Mayonnaise (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Bare (LRV 83), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Bare runs red while Mayonnaise is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 3.2 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
