Matt is traditionally a flat finish and therefore isn't supposed to have a sheen. You can of course, buy washable Matt these days which is a bit more expensive than normal matt. I presume you want it to be washable rather than to shine? If it's a shine you're looking for then you're best off buying a mid sheen or a silk as opposed to a matt.
