Make Believe vs Humble Yellow
Where Make Believe belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Humble Yellow is a Jotun color. Make Believe reads as beige-greige, while Humble Yellow reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Humble Yellow (LRV 57) reflects noticeably more light than Make Believe (LRV 52), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Make Believe runs red while Humble Yellow is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.6, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
