**Consider the Room’s Use**: Think about where you’re painting. High-traffic areas like hallways or kids' rooms might need something more durable, like satin or semi-gloss, while a bedroom could go for a softer matte finish.

**Light Reflection**: If the room gets a lot of light, a glossier finish can help bounce that light around, making the space feel brighter. But if you want a cozy vibe, a flat or eggshell finish might be the way to go.

**Surface Imperfections**: If your walls have some bumps or imperfections, a matte finish can help hide those flaws better than a shiny one, which tends to highlight them.

**Cleanability**: Think about how easy you want it to be to clean. Glossy finishes are usually easier to wipe down, so if you’ve got kids or pets, maybe lean towards satin or semi-gloss.

**Style and Aesthetics**: Consider the overall vibe you’re going for. A high-gloss finish can give a modern, sleek look, while a matte finish can feel more traditional and warm.
