Painting primed MDF skirting & architrave

Need advice and suggestions as to brand/ materials to minimise yellowing. Will be white but undecided between gloss or satin.

Use satin mate. Dulux or B&Q paint is also good just stay away from the discount shops

Go for the trade version if possible too.
Cheap paints are a waste of time and normally trade versions are much better

I recently used Dulux satinwood on the woodwork and MDF bath panel in my bathroom and, so far, it's wearing very well - no problem with steam and splashes.

Garage List
Try using the satin floor paint or 'diamond hard' paint as it is very hard wearing and will survive any scuffs better.
