Avon matte nailwear in "Violetta"

i saw this polish on FleurDeForce and just couldn't get it out of my head. it is a matte purple colour which you still can see a purple satin sheen with, most matte purples don't look as deep and are more blackish.
i tried to dupe it with purples i already had plus a matte top coat, because i didn't want to buy too many new colours. but it still couldn't satisfy me, because my dark shimmery purples all had too much pink sparkles to them.
and i indulged. i don't have a Avon-lady near me, but luckily searching on ebay brought me to a nice offer, i think i paid around 7€ for this (shipping included).
today it came in, and i must say i'm very pleased with it! it is just the way i wanted, it's satiny, it's incredibly deep but still visibly purple, and it has many blue shimmers next to pink sparkles.  i can't wait for the weekend to wear it!

3 thin coats

with a glossy top coat
