Beautiful pen and you have lovely handwriting. I was tempted by it, as I love my Esties, but I was afraid I'd get a brighter one with more green in it (I dislike green). I prefer to be able to see what I'm getting in those kinds of acrylics unless I love all the colors (like the Candy). It does look like the Dune is the same resin!
I ordered this and was so excited for it, but when I got it, the colors just looked muddy to me. Not nearly as clear and pastel and pretty as they were in the pictures. I had to return it and I was so sad.
Ohhhh noooooooo! This is a first that I’ve heard someone returning because of the colors. Did you get all the color mixed or just some? Hopefully you can find a different pen that brings you the same joy 🥲
@@CarrotsOlives The one I received just looked like kind of a duller version of the Sea Glass, which I already have and like better. For the $350 price tag, it just needed to spark more joy, and there are other, cheaper Esties that I like more. It was a hard decision though, because it looked so cute in the pictures!
Yes, very pretty. I regret missing out on an LE Estie of the past - Peacock. I saw it in person and omg it was so beautiful, I still think about that pen when I consider the ones that “got away”…..but damn - the price for a steel nib is just too high for me to justify. Love your reviews, though, it’s always fun to see the new stuff that comes out. There is a new-ish paper that reminds me of Cosmo Air Light, it’s a Japanese brand called Iroful. I haven’t bought it in a while, but think it is still available.
Oh I completely understand. Thank you for watching. The paper Iroful is now my second favorite paper. And yes you’re right it does feel similar to Cosmo Air Light.
Your writing is just GORGEOUS!! I wouldn’t have chosen that ink, but you made it look amazing! 😆
Yeah it’s a pretty deep, dark blue with sheen but it works😁
I really like watching your videos more and more! Soothing!
Thanks for sharing your unboxing. It's so fun for me to watch. Great pen ink combo. That Delta is lovely as well.
I’m a bit relieved that the pen colors are not exact 😅

I get that. I’ve had a couple of pens that made me a bit sad because I didn’t get the color combo I preferred from the main image. 😊
I love all of the accessories that came with it. It made it more fun to unbox. I inked mine with FWP Plaited Gold Tress.
Exactly!! Plaited Gold Tress? Hmmm 🤔 I haven’t seen that ink, but I looked it up. It looks stunning but is it dark enough to read?
@@CarrotsOlives Yes, it's dark enough, especially when it dries. A pen friend of mine sent me it as a sample and I loved it.
It's lovely..Congratulations. It reminds me of my birthstone for October.
Awe beautiful!!
The packaging is nice, beautiful pen.
Yes. Such a great opening experience
Nice pen selection. The Sweet Dreams pen is lovely. 😊
Agreed 😉
I agree with others, your Penmanship is beautiful 😍…I also love your choice of ink.
Thank you very much. I think the angle of my camera exposed the unique qualities of this ink 😄
what a cute pen! i love your handwriting!!
It is very cute and I give it xtra points for a lovely nib!!
I looooove this pen.
👌
Great videos....thank you! I am wondering what nib size is your Delta Duna and what do you think if the writing experience with it?
