paint touch up looks different?

19 years ago

I recently touched up a few suff marks on my walls. One was on latex glossy white and one was latex satin yellow. The paint has completely dried but you can see where I touched up. The areas look slightly darker but main problem is that the finish (glossy, satin) looks duller. I didn't use a ton of paint on the brush. I've done this before with no problem. All I can think of is that the paint was cold (stored down in the basement). The house is probably no colder than 62 degrees (usually warmer) but basement is probably colder. Could this have caused the problem? I'm wondering if I need to now repaint the whole area where I did the touch-ups.

thx
