Diamine Hope Pink

[saskia_madding]

I am not a huge fan of pinks. I like fuchsia, such as Noodler's Saguaro Wine or Iroshizuku's Yama-budo. But PINK pink of any shade is usually not something I love.

Having said that, I do really like Diamine's Hope Pink. It's way too vibrant for me to ever really use so I won't be buying a bottle. But for those of you that like pink, you should definitely pick up a sample of this one.

Thanks for the write up. I'm still thinking of getting a bottle for a pressent, my eldist niece wants something girly... ugh... getting her a purple pen for it as well lol...

Excellent pictures! I *do* love this ink, but I'd been searching for a great pure pink. Nice review!

If Hope is too pink, have you tried Diamine Claret? Still quite vibrant, but more purple than your sample above.

Iroshi Tsutsuji is also a very pink pink, but leans a bit more red/magenta than Hope Pink, if you're interested.
