Both are very lovely.The Russian Navy is closer in hue to the Chanel Blue Satin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463573814677466428.post-63039515984749739452008-02-23T14:40:00.000-05:002008-02-23T14:40:00.000-05:00I'm going for OPI DS Fantacy and the new spring 2008 YGGTB.

Let me give you a tip, put on one coat of the Blue Satin and one coat of "Azur", talk about sparkle. Yes, it is more expensive, but Chanel's nail polish stays on longer with no chipping.

O and you can also order it from Nordstrom's website. So not all places are sold out. This is a very fabulous color. I have a few blue polishes and this one is my fav. Make sure you don't put it on to thick, it will look more black than blue. Thin coats!!

BLUE SATIN has no sparkle. It does NOT look blue on my fingers the way it looks so blue online. I am disappointed I wasted money on this. The shade looked so pretty online and I feel like I bought another black nail polish. That being said, OPI Russian Navy is DIFFERENT than Chanel Blue Satin. If you want a real blue try Essie Aruba Blue.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463573814677466428.post-82656546764717625212008-01-08T19:47:00.000-05:002008-01-08T19:47:00.000-05:00Anonymous, I tried out Azure and I LOVE it. It's a must. It also looks INCREDIBLE layered over Blue Satin. Gives the color more depth and sparkle. But it's gorgeous as a light polish.

I love it -- it looks fresh and slightly edgy, but is different from the standard punky black. I highly recommend OPI's "Russian Navy" if you like these pictures! By the way, your manicure is amazing. I wish I could do my nails as well as that!Maggienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463573814677466428.post-23690275820983860502007-11-30T20:22:00.000-05:002007-11-30T20:22:00.000-05:00Is it just me or is that color a near-match for the (season's ago) Chanel Ciel de Nuit? Although, to be fair, I think that one had white bits of glitter, not navy. Still - it seems a bit rip-offy.

I'm excited since it will be my first Chanel polish! Anyways, for those who said they wanted a navy that looked navy, if you don't mind a bit of shimmer DS Fantasy is perfect. The holo seems almost mono-chromatic, so it's not quite as blingy and definitely worth checking out.merrillinanoreply@blogger.com
