First Star vs Lavender Wisp

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, First Star belongs to the grey family and Lavender Wisp to the blue-white family. Lavender Wisp (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than First Star (LRV 69), a difference of 13 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. First Star runs neutral while Lavender Wisp is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.6 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
