Today we continue to march into the midst of shimmer inks. Diamine Cobalt Jazz is a bright blue with sheen and shimmer.

This was a gorgeous ink to sample. I’ve started liking sheening inks a lot more and like how the ink sheens red at the edges. The color reminds me of Diamine Majestic Blue and Sargasso Sea. Additionally, the “spread” of the glitter is even throughout my writing sample.

Overall: Cobalt Jazz is a bright ballpoint blue with beautiful red sheen and shimmer.
