Aloe EssencePPGvsMagic DustPPGΔE 43.8 — Very different colors

Aloe Essence and Magic Dust come from the same PPG collection. Aloe Essence reads as green-yellow, while Magic Dust reads as grey — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. The 64-point LRV gap — 85 for Aloe Essence vs 21 for Magic Dust — means Aloe Essence will open up a space more effectively. A ΔE of 43.8 puts these firmly in different territory — two distinct design choices rather than close alternatives.

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.
