Satin is lower gloss than semi-gloss paint.
Paint finishes in order of decreasing gloss are:
* Gloss * Semi-gloss * Satin/Low sheen * Flat Some manufacturers call Satin/Low sheen finish Eggshell, and others regard this as a finish between Satin/Low sheen and Flat paint.
The higher the gloss finish the easier it is to clean, the higher its durabillity and the more it shows surface imperfections.

What is flat colors?
It is not the color that is flat, it is the surface that is either glossy (very shiny, like a new car), or semi-gloss (not as shiny, but still a little shiny), or flat (not shiny at all, though still smooth). These terms are usually used to describe what a wall or other surface will look like when paint has been applied and dries.
