Lavender Wisp vs White Sand

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Lavender Wisp belongs to the blue-white family and White Sand to the greige-white family. They have nearly identical light reflectance values (83 vs 84), so they'll read as similarly Light in most lighting conditions. Lavender Wisp runs cool while White Sand is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 4.3 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
