Sheer Romance vs Warm Blush

Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Sheer Romance belongs to the blue family and Warm Blush to the beige family. Warm Blush (LRV 80) reflects noticeably more light than Sheer Romance (LRV 45), a difference of 36 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Sheer Romance runs blue while Warm Blush is decidedly red, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 30.6, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
