Frosted Dawn vs New Meringue
Both from Dulux's palette. Hue-wise, Frosted Dawn belongs to the beige-white family and New Meringue to the beige-yellow family. Frosted Dawn (LRV 93) reflects noticeably more light than New Meringue (LRV 86), a difference of 7 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 4.4 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
