The finish, or sheen, of your paint matters as much as the colour. It changes how light bounces off the wall, how well the surface hides flaws, and how easy it is to clean.
Matte
A flat, elegant look that hides minor wall imperfections. Best for bedrooms, ceilings and low-traffic areas. It is the hardest to wipe clean, so avoid it in kitchens and near young children.
Eggshell and satin
A soft, subtle glow that balances looks with durability. Wipeable and forgiving, these are the safe all-rounders for living rooms, hallways and family spaces.
Semi-gloss and gloss
Reflective, tough and moisture-resistant. Reserve these for trims, doors, window frames, kitchens and bathrooms where you need to scrub.
