Secluded Beach vs Buttermilk
Where Secluded Beach belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Buttermilk is a Dulux color. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. Buttermilk (LRV 77) reflects noticeably more light than Secluded Beach (LRV 74), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Secluded Beach runs red while Buttermilk is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. At ΔE 2.3, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
