Ink Review #603: Tono & Lims Earth Citrulline

Today I will be reviewing a shimmer ink from Tono & Lims Earth Contact Line. Citrulline is a pale green yellow.

Swabs:

This ink had medium to high shading and gold glitter. The color is a cool yellow with hints of green.

This ink had quite a long dry time at 60 seconds but high water resistance. *

I spilled water on my writing sample, and would reclassify the resistance to low/medium.

This ink was desaturated with a dry flow.

Overall: I wasn’t a fan of how light this ink was. It would do best in broad nibs or wet writers.
