White Vanilla vs You Are My Sunshine
Both from Benjamin Moore's palette. Hue-wise, White Vanilla belongs to the beige-white family and You Are My Sunshine to the beige-yellow family. White Vanilla (LRV 87) reflects noticeably more light than You Are My Sunshine (LRV 83), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. White Vanilla runs yellow and red while You Are My Sunshine is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 6.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
