• Colour: Bright, beautiful yellow-orange with gold shimmer.

• Similar to: It’s like Diamine Blaze orange but with glitter, and a much brighter, lighter, and warmer version of Herbin Cornaline d’Egypt.

Writing Sample

Verdict

Even though it’s beautiful without a doubt, it bothers me how lightweight the shimmer particles are. They need to be shaken often. I drew this with a dip pen and a paintbrush through on of those sample vials and I needed to cap it and shake it constantly. Then, the shimmer pools it to the wettest bits. It also comes off on my fingers now that it’s dried. No doubt is it gorgeous and bright, but those things can be a bit annoying.
