Liane Likes | Swatching Fountain Pen Inks: 3 Sailor Yurameku's and 1 Shikiori! @lianelikes | Uploaded May 2022 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
I ordered four Sailor Yurameku samples from Goulet Pens and it turns out that one of them was mislabeled and was actually a Shikiori (I wouldn't have known if Goulet Pens hadn't been proactive and communicated this mistake right away after purchase)! But it worked out because that Shikiori turned out to be my absolute favorite of the bunch. Instead of using bread clips for swatching inks (you can see bread clips in action in my Fountain Inks Collection video), I decided to give my cosmetics spatula a try. Would love to hear what you think about that. :) Enjoy!
