Review on 🎨 Winsor & Newton 30ml Gold Drawing Ink Bottle: Shimmering Elegance for Artistic Excellence by Jessica Lewis

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A beautiful mascara that requires patience.

I bought this mascara thanks to @captainnib on Instagram. He does quick writing tests and uses this ink for his "shining gold". I really like this ink and have used it quite a bit in less than a week. This is definitely an ink you need to be patient with. I give it a good shake upside down before opening, leaving a toothpick in the inkwell to stir between pen loads. It seems to be working fine so far, but I have to shuffle and reload every 4-7 letters or so. I have Pearl Ex pigments to add to the ink solution as the gold deposit seems to be decreasing. The ink is definitely NOT waterproof so you may need to use a protective spray if you want this to last long. It's also handy for cleaning, although I've accidentally dripped ink from the pen a couple of times, which caused the residue to be stirred up. I really need to put my pen down, but sometimes. you're losing your patience right now lol. In general, gold dances when it dries and looks wonderful when it's hardened. The only other material that comes close is my .630 Arabic Gold Finetec watercolor tray (which I use for brush calligraphy). I recommend if you're willing to stir the sediment constantly. :)

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
