So like I said the other day, lots of duochromes will be coming up. This one is reasonably new from the OPI Hawaii collection. I bought this soley because it is supposed to be a pretty good dupe for Chanel Azure. I never bought Chanel Azure because I couldn't justify it for a color that seemed so 90s. Nothing against the 90s I enjoyed the 90s very much (as much as an elementary school child could) but I just felt like it had been done already (despite the fact that there were no dupes to be found). Back in the fall I did try Deviantly Daring by China Glaze which was too dark and maybe not quite right with the finish. The OPI version has more of a foil-ish type finish and has added pink micro glitter. On to the photos
This polish definitely looks better in more extreme lighting, in everyday lighting it looks a bit blah on me. For someone with my pale skintone I think more vibrant, saturated colors look better. This one in average light just looks a bit washed out. It is a shame becuase it is so pretty in the bottle. Though I did spy some images of the fall OPI collection and one of them looks a bit Chanel Azure-y and Chanel Bel-Argus-y (potentially). So I'm excited to see more of that! I also think I shall attempt an OPI TCMW and China Glaze DD mashup/layering experiment. Hopefully that turns out ok...
Happy Wednesday !
