Ink Review #463: L'Artisan Pastellier Encre Classique Rose Grenade

Today we are kicking things off with Rose Grenade, a bright pink. Not only do I like the name, but I love the color! It’s a fantastic “in your face” vibrant pink.

This is a true flamingo pink without any apparent undertones. It has low shading and no sheen.

I found this ink to have a smooth, slightly dry flow. The color is lovely and reminds me of the beach. I did not experience any hard starts or skips.

Overall: This is a gorgeous pink ink with some shading.
