Avon Super Shock Gel Eyeliner in Golden Fawn - dupe for Chanel Rose Platine?

today just a quick eyeliner-review. i bought this Avon Super Shock Gel Eyeliner some months ago after i saw a review on Cream's Beauty Blog. not only is Golden Fawn a light metallic taupe, it also  seemed to be a dupe to Chanel Stylo Yeux in Rose Platine - a beloved, but limited edition eyeliner that i only use sparingly to not run out of it.
this has a creamy and soft texture and glides smoothly on the skin for a highly pigmented line without any dragging. just as Chanel Rose Platine, i like to wear this on the lower lashline. the silver taupe subtly defines the eye but also opens it because of its reflective quality. it contains tiny crystal flecks, so i don't use it on the waterline. staying power is medium, it does set but i still notice some smudging at the outer corner after 2 or 3 hours (doesn't seem to be sebum-proof). since the colour is so light, i don't mind it, though.
i bought mine on ebay for about 6-7€.

for both looks, i wore Avon Golden Fawn on the lower lashline.

 so let's see if it's a dupe for Chanel Rose Platine at all...

 Avon Golden Fawn - Chanel Rose Platine

they are very close, but Chanel is a bit more golden compared to Avon. also, Rose Platine is made of  tiniest glitter particles which gives it a lot of complexity while Golden Fawn is a smooth metallic that has less dimension to it.

after the rub test...

as you can clearly see, Chanel is still there but Avon is not. the same result i experienced on the eye.


overall, i think Golden Fawn is not a spot-on dupe to Chanel Rose Platine, but applied, they have a very similar effect so i don't think you can tell if you don't look very closely.
