YSL La Laque: 43 Wintergreen & 44 Midnight Blue Comparisons

I found these online at Neiman Marcus. I posted about Wintergreen on Monday.  I have a couple of blue polishes so I knew I was running the risk of already having something similar to the YSL Midnight Blue, but I took a chance on it anyway.

Left to right:

1. YSL 44 Midnight Blue
2. Dior Tuxedo
3. Rescue Beauty Lounge Dead Calm
4: Chanel Blue Satin

These are the blues I have that are similar to the YSL Midnight Blue.

On me the Midnight Blue, Dior Tuxedo and the Chanel Blue Satin are virtually identical indoors. Outdoors the Dior Tuxedo seems to be more of a deep grape blue and the Chanel Blue Satin and the YSL Midnight Blue are indistinguishable. The RBL Dead Calm is noticeably different indoors and outdoors. Next to the other three it seems to be more of a royal navy. 

The midnight blue is a nice color but not particularly unique. The take away for me is unless I’m changing my name to Smurfette I don’t need any more blues  :o)..

Have a great day !
