Salsa Dancing vs Tomato Galette
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. These are both pink-reds, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within pink-red to land. Salsa Dancing (LRV 17) reflects noticeably more light than Tomato Galette (LRV 13), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Salsa Dancing runs red while Tomato Galette is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
