Ink Review #229: Diamine Shimmertastic Tropical Glow

Today I’ll be reviewing Diamine Tropical Glow.

This ink had no shading and high silver glitter. The color is a medium turquoise similar to Diamine Marine.

This ink had a shockingly quick dry time at around at 10 seconds. As you see above, I was startled at the dry time and repeated it to make sure. This ink had low water resistance.

This ink had a slightly dry but consistent flow. I absolutely loved the color and glitter!

Overall: I definitely recommend trying a sample if you like turquoise or glitter inks. I was very pleased with Tropical Glow and would purchase a full sized bottle in the future!
