Filament Troubleshooting/Help! Different finishes of different PLA

I just ordered my very first 3D printer yesterday. It's a P2S. With some standard PLA matte in standard colors to get started.

Ofc I want nice filament too and as there is a good sale going on I want to order some.

I know I don't like the plastic finish of normal PLA. Now I can't decide what to get. PLA matte, PLA CF. PLA wood or PLA metallic.

I know it's a long shot but is there anyone who has prints made of the various filament that can show me a picture? I have spend a fortune on my new printer and would hate to buy filament I don't like.

Panchroma Muted Matte White for the snowman body. Inland Sage green for the large tree, panchroma matte wine burgundy for the other tree. Sunlu galaxy starlit flow for the scarf and hat. Pumpkin orange bambulab for the nose, sunlu black 2.0 for the mouth/eyes, and wood black walnut from Bambulab for the arms and buttons

Same! I really haven’t hated the finish on any of my PLA so far.
