Moonlight White vs Cotton
Moonlight White is a Benjamin Moore color while Cotton comes from Sherwin-Williams. These are both beige-greiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige-greige to land. With LRVs of 83 and 83, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. The tonal difference — Moonlight White's yellow character against Cotton's warm — becomes most visible against white trim or in morning light. With a ΔE of 1.2, the difference is subtle — you'd need them side by side to reliably tell them apart.
