Saint Martin Sand vs Alpaca Mittens
Where Saint Martin Sand belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Alpaca Mittens is a Valspar color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Alpaca Mittens (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Saint Martin Sand (LRV 49), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 4.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
