Salon Perfect Nautical Nights

Hi, you guys! Happy October! :)

Today, I wanted to share with you the last of my picks from the Salon Perfect First Look Fall Collection. Nautical Nights is a dark cool-toned teal-ish blue with lots of shimmers in a metallic finish.






With Salon Perfect Matte Fx Top Coat

This is probably the color I was most looking forward to in the collection, and it does not disappoint. It's so mysterious and vampy in how rich and dark it is. It's exactly the sort of color I would wear if I were feeling bleak and wanted to embrace that. :) It has a great formula with no application issues. It goes on as smoothly and evenly as it looks in the swatches. You can get away with just one coat of this, though I did two for the swatches mostly out of habit.

I added a matte top coat at the end, and I love it even more. The matte-ness really brings out the shimmers and adds a little sophistication to this color. After trying out so many colors as mattes from this collection, I have to say I've totally gone matte-crazy lol. It instantly takes any shimmer and makes it so refined and elegant. I'm definitely going to be matte-fying a whole bunch of my fall colors over the next few months. :-)

You can find Nautical Nights exclusively at Walmart stores for a retail price of $3.98 for 0.5 fl oz.
