Eggshell or Gloss white paint for interior window frame?

[Possom]

Is it more 'traditional' when painting the interior side of a sash timber window frame white in colour, to paint it a gloss finish or a less glossy finish such as eggshell?

Thanks.

eggshell holds dirt and is difficult to clean

That's a good point.

I might opt for one of these products then:

Would anyone of these be less likely to yellow than the others?

Actually, I've just noticed this paint, which apparently is non-yellowing. It's a cream colour, so I suppose any yellowing won't show to the same extent.

I don't know if any of the brilliant white paints which I linked-to earlier are less liable to yellowing, so it'd be interesting to hear if anyone has experience of using them.

sunlight prevents yellowing, so a window will not suffer.

oil paints may yellow, water-based paints don't

Yes, that's a good point too.

The front of my house receives lots of direct sunlight, whilst the back receives none.
