the moment hot weather starts, i reach for bel argus, chanel's beauty from their l’eté papillon de chanel, from their 2013 summer collection.
i guess it's a known fact that it's named after lysandra bellargus butterfly, but it's only the male that is entirely blue; the top part of the female's wing is brown.
when i wear bel argus, i prefer it to azure,
and vice versa. it is another blue gorgeousness, this time, almost
electric, deep sea blue metallic. it's duochrome effect is a bit toned
down comparing to azure; also, the brushstrokes are less visible!
i can't wait to wear it near the water, it made me daydream of sea today at work!
natural light:
shade:
i used base (china glaze strong adhesion) + two layers of polish + top coat (essence better than gel nails top sealer BTGNTS).
