Love this video! I think it’d be cool to see the top sellers from different color tones as well, ie: top light blue inks, top dark pink/burgundy inks, top warm-green ink colors, etc. (I know this might sound nuts haha.)
i’d like to see the top pigment inks overall ! i have cats that love my journals so much that they will have bath time on them so i tend to favor water-resistant/proof inks🥴
Surprised at not a single traditional blue in there. Two suggestions. First, use multiple, different papers for each ink. Most inks perform differently (sometimes greatly) on different types of paper. Two, when swatching with a glass dip pen, use a plastic cup for rinsing. A glass cup increases the possibility of damaging the nib. Thanks.
Thanks for the suggestions! Good point about swatching them on different papers :) We do use a plastic cup for rinsing - we learned from having a couple of these break on us!! haha
So interesting! I wonder if folks use these lighter colours more for art (ink washes, for example) than for writing. (p s. your nails are insane, May. I'd totally hurt myself if I tried wearing those. 😜😂)
That Lennon Tool Bar Cloudy Day is green/gray. Ink Institute Cat At Dusk is not blue either. Celadon is not blue... its a green. The last one... That is a glorious blue. I've never tried an Ink Institute before. Nekoyanagi is purple, not blue.
I’d like to see your best sellers shading inks. I will only use ink that shades. No sheen or sparkles…just shading. ❤️
The inks are pretty but May’s nails are the star of the show! Those look amazing.
The best sellers for blue are a surprise-they’re not the typical ones I expected. Nice to be introduced to some different inks.

Great video! I would love to see a top 5 purple inks video in the future :)
Love the same ink comparison concept - great for newbies and experienced alike 👍🏽

Such a cat thing. Why do they have to be like that? I rarely turned in a school art project that the cat didn't crunch by getting on it.
@@NameLikeNobodyElse someone told me that cats try to mimic their owners and routines as a way to try to bond with them🥺❤️
omg I've never heard of someone using waterproof inks for this reason! I love it hahaha
Lennon Tool Bar Cloudy Day is like my favorite ink everrrr 🔥 🔥
This is beyond satisfying ☺☺
I would love to see this for each color family - red, pink, green, purple, etc

Love the comparisons, funny that bestselling are hard to use in fountain pens.
What about best reviewed fountain pens comparisons?
I'd love to see this video but for pink inks !

Can we get a video of everyone’s favorite fountain pen ink for writing?
Blue is my favorite color.
You can save money on dip pens with those nails!
I wish there was a water resistant ink...
Those nails are amazing. I really enjoyed this, seeing how different the blues are. Cloudy Day is my favourite.

Hahah our interpretation of blue is causing a stir! I guess these are more in the blue family :)
What is the dip pen you are using called.
Looks to me like the standard R & K, but they will have to confirm.
The one we used is the J Herbin straight glass dip pen! :)
I can’t believe people actually write with the super-light inks. They aren’t even legible when used in a fountain pen!
Maybe in a Broad nib? :)
Cool❤
Half of these aren't blue....
Nails are creepy
