Comparison Swabs:
Dream a Dream is similar to Sailor Shimoyo.
Monday Sickness is close to Diamine Ash.
Sodalite is lighter than the other blue shimmer inks I have.
The first two inks had an average flow and Sodalite had a dry flow.
Overall, Dream a Dream is my favorite out of the three. I love the color and how it writes.
