Limón Fresco vs Solitude

Limón Fresco runs warm while Solitude is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 64.4, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.

Digital color is approximate.
