Euphoric Lilac vs Lighthearted Pink
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Euphoric Lilac reads as pink-purple, while Lighthearted Pink reads as pink-red — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Lighthearted Pink (LRV 71) reflects noticeably more light than Euphoric Lilac (LRV 61), a difference of 10 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
