Southern Belle vs Yellow Lilies
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, Southern Belle belongs to the blue family and Yellow Lilies to the beige-yellow family. Yellow Lilies (LRV 76) reflects noticeably more light than Southern Belle (LRV 12), a difference of 64 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Southern Belle runs blue while Yellow Lilies is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 85.0, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
