Lavender Wash vs Rain Sky
Where Lavender Wash belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Rain Sky is a Jotun color. Hue-wise, Lavender Wash belongs to the blue-grey family and Rain Sky to the blue family. Rain Sky (LRV 69) reflects noticeably more light than Lavender Wash (LRV 65), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Lavender Wash runs blue while Rain Sky is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.7, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
