Frost Bite vs Lavender Wisp
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Frost Bite reads as beige, while Lavender Wisp reads as blue-white — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Frost Bite (LRV 88) reflects noticeably more light than Lavender Wisp (LRV 83), a difference of 5 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Frost Bite runs warm while Lavender Wisp is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 8.0 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
