what are the inks u r using !!! esp the shimmer ones !!! also what kind of pens(?)/nibs(?) do use for the shimmer ones.... i haven't bought any shimmer inks yet bc i'm afraid the glitters will get clogged +other potential problems 😓 i'm planning to buy shimmer inks from wearingeul soon tho bc i can't resist 😭 idk if i should stick to dip pens with that 😓

hiii !! i'll attach a picture of my collection on the twitter post ^_^ my pens are the TWSBI eco smoke with rose gold and kaweco sport (M to EB nibs). my shimmer inks are all from vinta

i've only tried them on my kaweco sport pens since im also worried about the clogging hahaha. And i figured that it'd be better to use try them on a pen with a converter so that if clogging happens, i can simply flush the pen with it+water.

I haven't had much problems with the shimmer inks except for vinta's sea and sky, though i might have to tinker with it a bit cause the others flow very well. wearingeul's inks look super pretty !! i think as long as you clean out your pens often and maybe just stick to bigger sized nibs, shimmer inks should work well for you. definitely give them a try ✨✨
