<\/div>\n

Phew, that’s a wrap on another 25 Days of Dupes! I’ll have to come up with something special to do for next year since it will be the 5th anniversary. If you have any ideas, let me know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doubtless, these Inkvent inks will get released as full bottles next year as all the others have. Hopefully this series helped you decide which \u2014 if any \u2014 to get. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Differences and Lessons Learned<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This year’s 25 Days of Dupes was significantly more work since I swatched the inks on an additional paper type and created YouTube shorts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s start with that first item. I chose bad paper for the swatches. The Kokuyo paper couldn’t quite handle the heavy ink application and feathered\/bledthrough with multiple inks. On top of that, the grid on the Kokuyo paper and the dots on the Franklin-Christoph and Iroful paper were obstacles to editing the swatch photos to be true-to-life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I need to make sure to use blank paper for next year’s swatches. Let me know if you have any suggestions for easy-to-buy paper that can handle the ink quantity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The videos, while all under a minute, still took extra time to film, edit, and upload. I hope they were useful (please let me know), but I don’t know if I’ll do them again next year. You can watch all of the shorts together on my 2023 Inkvent playlist<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comparing the Inkvent Calendars<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I enjoyed this year’s Inkvent calendar enough to get my own \u2014 the first time since 2019. I appreciate that the calendar was released earlier again this year. It gave me the opportunity to order ink samples during the Fountain Pen Day and Black Friday sales to save myself some money. I purchased 72 ink samples in addition to the ones I already owned, so even a few cents each really start to add up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diamine definitely improved from last year. I only matched two inks to other Diamine inks, and none<\/em> matched to previous Inkvent inks. That’s certainly a relief after last year’s<\/a> poor showing. If you count the “close second” inks, then Inkvent inks and Diamine inks as a whole make a significantly greater appearance (four and eight, respectively), but that seems unfair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were even a handful of inks \u2014 5 actually \u2014 that I didn’t<\/em> dupe. And, in all but one case, that wasn’t for lack of trying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Running the Numbers”<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Formulas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I continued last year’s format, counting the four main formula types: standard, shimmer, sheen, and scented. I’ve grouped the various subtypes into those four main types. While this means the numbers won’t add up to 25 \u2014 or 100% \u2014 you get to see how things actually<\/em> break out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surprisingly, Diamine didn’t include any sheening inks this year. Instead, they upped the shimmer inks from 13 to 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a complete 180 from previous years, this didn’t bother me. I’ve learned to appreciate shimmer inks \u2014 as long as I can fully disassemble the pen to clean it. More on that in a future post. I also like that the chameleon formula color shifts are more noticeable this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, I despised<\/em> the Star Bright formula. I’ve seen comments from people who enjoyed it, saying that it worked well for them. But, I couldn’t even get a full word out of my pen without it clogging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Regardless of a new appreciation for shimmer inks, I would have liked to see mroe multi-shaders. There was only one \u2014 maybe three if you have really<\/em> good paper and an extremely wet nib \u2014 and you had to lay down quite a bit of ink to see it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The color variety is excellent this year. None of the color categories got left out, and there wasn’t an overabundance of blue inks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep in mind, I haven’t compared them to the Inkvent inks, so I don’t know how accurate these are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      A Fun Addition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Some of you may know about my Makeup Monday posts<\/a>. For funsies, I decided to match to each week of Inkvent inks and the calendar itself. Each image below is linked to an Instagram post that shows the eyeshadow look in more detail, if you’re interested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Thank You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

      Thanks again to David D. from the DC Metro Pen Crew. Without him, once again, generously loaning me his Inkvent calendar, 25 Days of Dupes wouldn’t have happened this year. You rock, David!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Also, I really have to applaud Diamine on their calendar this year, but please<\/em> leave out the scented inks in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n\n\n\n

      Thanks for reading to the end, I hope you enjoyed my post. What did you think of this year’s Inkvent calendar? Do you have any other possible dupes to suggest? What paper should I use for swatches next year? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear from you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
