Ink Review #570: Tono & Lims Regulus

Today I will be reviewing Tono & Lims Regulus. This is a color-shifting fluorescent ink from their Star Light Line.

Swabs:

This ink had low shading and no sheen. The color starts as a bright blue that dries to a green-leaning teal. It also fluoresces under UV light.

This ink had excellent saturation and wet flow. I used Tomoe River paper—in the photos above, you can see spots where the color remained blue.

Overall: This is a very interesting ink and I recommend trying out a sample! I rarely write more than two pages for ink reviews, but liked the color so much that I wrote three pages.
