🎨 Paint tip: Does the finish affect the color?
Yes! The finish can change how a paint color looks. Matte finishes absorb more light and create a soft, muted appearance, while eggshell, satin, and semi-gloss finishes reflect more light, making colors appear brighter or slightly deeper.
Test your color in the finish you plan to use, and view it in both daylight and evening lighting. This will help you see how the finish affects the color, texture, and overall look of the room.
A little testing now can help you choose the right finish and avoid repainting later! 🏡
