Naughty Nautical is one of the polishes from Essie's summer 2013 collection. It should still be available at some places, although it might be on sale. It is a minty green color with just a hint of sparkle, achieved by a few very fine sparse glitters.
The color is very bright and pigmented, becoming opaque really only in one coat. The glitter really isn't noticeable on the nail, it just makes the formula seem shinier when applied.
The downsides to the formula are that the wear is not fantastic, starting with the tip wear, but also some pretty significant chips for me after a few minutes of doing dishes on some of my nails. Another downside is that there are a lot of different polishes out there right now that are very similar to this one. Without the glitter, I think the color would be exactly the same as Sally Hansen's "Mint Sprint."
