Mexico vs Pale Lime
Where Mexico belongs to Jotun's range, Pale Lime is a Little Greene color. Mexico reads as beige, while Pale Lime reads as beige-yellow — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Pale Lime (LRV 54) reflects noticeably more light than Mexico (LRV 35), a difference of 19 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Mexico runs warm while Pale Lime is decidedly yellow, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 36.1, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
