Light of the Moon vs Pure Laughter
Where Light of the Moon belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Pure Laughter is a Cloverdale Paint color. These are both beige-yellows, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-yellow to land. Pure Laughter (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Light of the Moon (LRV 82), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.8, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate.
