Mixing ✨ Shimmer Inks ✨ with Pennonia Liquid Shimmer

I've been wanting to try my hand at mixing my own shimmer inks for the longest time and it is SO MUCH FUN.
Also, sorry for mispronouncing 'macassar' a million times. I should've googled how to pronounce it before filming, not after... 😅

Thank you for sharing!! I love shimmer inks!!!

[@Adventuresover40]

Very nice. I really enjoy mixing inks. I have never used these. I wonder how they perform in a pen. Thank you for sharing

[@m00nwise]

Love to try these shimmers, I hope I can try and/or buy them on my next penshow. I would love to make a grey or a black with violet and silver shimmer

[@ruonpaper]

That sounds like a beautiful combination! ✨

I'm glad you tried these, I've been curious ever since I saw them on Cult Pens' site. Will you be trying these in fountain pens to see how well they write, do they clog, etc.?
Macassar plus shimmer looks a lot like J. Herbin's Caroube de Chypre, which is one of my favorite brown inks. I wouldn't have expected the relatively small amount of gold added to it to bring Macassar around to that warmer brown hue.

Thank you for watching! I just googled Caroube de Chypre and they DO look similar, nice! I'm always surprised by how much difference in perceived hue the shimmer can make. A gold shimmer can make the entire ink look more warm, whereas a silver shimmer does the exact opposite. I'll definitely try them in pens as well, and will possibly make a video or post on that at some point.
