Bee's Wax

SW 7682

Bee's Wax (SW, #EABF86) is a warm orange-leaning beige with yellow undertones and an LRV of 57, placing it at a moderate brightness level. It reads warmer and more chromatic than a standard beige, with its golden-orange cast remaining visible under most lighting conditions. Sunbeam and Mannered Gold sit in its tonal family for an analogous scheme, while Homestead Brown and Seaworthy provide substantial value contrast.

Adding Aloe or Rainwashed introduces a cooler element that balances the overall warmth without creating visual tension.
