Geranium vs Tender Pink

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Tender Pink (LRV 41) reflects noticeably more light than Geranium (LRV 16), a difference of 24 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean red, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 35.7, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
