Crème Caramel vs Sand Dunes
Both are Benjamin Moore colors. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. At LRV 73 vs 70, Crème Caramel will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. The tonal difference — Crème Caramel's warm character against Sand Dunes's red — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 2.2, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
