Ink Review #257: Diamine Shimmertastic Cocoa Shimmer

 

Today we jump right back into shimmering inks with Diamine Cocoa Shimmer.

Swabs: 


This ink had low shading and a high amount of gold glitter. The color is a standard brown but the glitter provides a holiday feel. The glitter does not smear after drying.

Dry Time/Water Resistance:

This ink had a longer dry time at 45 seconds and medium water resistance.

Writing Sample:

I did not experience any hard starts or skips while using this ink. The ink had a regular and consistent flow. I noticed that the glitter seemed to decrease the more I wrote—most likely due to the particles settling in the ink.

Overall: This is a fun reindeer brown. I liked the glitter but felt that the brown was a little too flat for my taste.
