Mineral Glow vs Magnolia

Mineral GlowCloverdale PaintvsMagnoliaDuluxΔE 4.3Noticeable difference

Mineral Glow is a Cloverdale Paint color while Magnolia comes from Dulux. These are both beiges, so the question isn't which hue to choose — it's where within beige to land. At LRV 83 vs 80, Magnolia will read as the brighter of the two — a 3-point gap that matters most in north-facing or low-light rooms. At ΔE 4.3, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 4 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Mineral Glow vs Magnolia in Real Spaces

4 real rooms side by side. Mineral Glow and Magnolia are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

Living rooms test a color across a full range of conditions — morning sun, afternoon shade, and evening lamp light all shift how both of these read. Magnolia has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
