Avon Diamond Sparkle - Night Violet
I picked this up in the sale recently. It's from the Diamond Sparkle range (hence the different bottle shape), but there is also the same polish from the regular range that I think is very similar looking!
This is okay to use and okay to apply. The formula is a bit runny and awkward to work with. Drying time was okay (2-3 minutes a coat). The brush is okay though. It's a nice purple colour with a subtle shimmer. BUT this colour leans towards brown too much for my liking - and as you know, I'm not a big fan of browns! Lasted really well.

Sexy shade. It is slightly brown, but in a nice, tasty way :) Not exactly my hue, you know that, but it's OK.
ReplyDeleteIt is a bit ;-) Yeah the brown is just a bit too much for me. Yeah :-D
DeleteAh, Ananka, now I know what happened ;) How did you vote?
ReplyDeleteIt was a big event and there was some trouble in Glasgow on the Friday. Oh that's personal and would rather no say ;-)
DeleteOK, after I had written the question, I thought it would be too personal.
DeleteHehe yeah! I guess it is private. Whatever the outcome, we all knew our world would be different. Need to wait and see what happens now!!! :-|
DeleteI like it! :)

Glad you like it! Yeah the bottle is kinda cool :-)
DeleteIt is brown leaning - but I think it looks gorgeous on you!
ReplyDeleteVery brown leaning hehe! Thanks Maria :-)
DeleteThe colour is really nice. The problem I see, is that there are some slight gaps. So coverage doesn't seem to be too good.
ReplyDeleteKind regards,
Elena
Glad you like it. Coverage wasn't too bad considering it was runny. That might just be may bad painting :-|

DeleteI love the bottle...The polish too, but I agree with you about it being a little bit too brown (for a violet).
ReplyDeleteYeah! Too much brown - not a good thing, well for me! :-)
DeleteI love the shade, but it's a little too brown for me! Pretty look on your nails, though! :)

It's nice when it looks purple! Thanks MJ :-D
DeleteI love the interesting bottle shape! Maybe I'm weird for that :D I like this colour, Its unusual and I don't tend to wear much brown although I should. I think this one is pretty :) xx
ReplyDeleteIt is a nice bottle yeah. Not at all ;-) I think this one would look good on you :-)
DeleteI must admit that I'm no brown lover either. I love the shape of the bottle though :)
ReplyDeleteYeah I'm glad I'm not the only one! Yeah that's a plus :-)
Deletei don't like browns much either, but I kinda like this one! it's leaning towards burgundy. Sucks about formula though
ReplyDeleteYeah the formula is pretty sucky :-( But it does look good when it is purple :-)

DeleteLove that bottle shape--I don't think I've seen one like that before.
ReplyDeleteYeah is pretty cool! It was for that range. I think there are other Avon ones like that shape too! :-)
Deletei really like these Avon bottles! I don't own any like that. I agree it is a bit too brown though... I'm not really a fan of brown either haha
ReplyDeleteThey are cool :-) Hehe yeah I'm glad I'm not the only one. I know many people like browns :-)
