Lavender Wisp vs Whitetail

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Lavender Wisp belongs to the blue-white family and Whitetail to the beige-white family. Whitetail (LRV 86) reflects noticeably more light than Lavender Wisp (LRV 83), a difference of 4 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Lavender Wisp runs cool while Whitetail is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. The ΔE 7.8 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
