Ink + Skin Stain of Exalted Venus II
An all-natural light pink-purle alcohol ink made entirely from botanical sources, fumigated and combined during our Exalted Venus II election: plantain leaf, spearmint, copper, and more, left to incubate before being strained and combined in the day and hour of Venus with colloidal copper + organic honey — one of the oldest known ink fixatives, employed by Ancient Egyptians.
This ink works with dip pens or paint brushes.
The cap also features its own brush, which can be used to create a light background for petition papers.
Use as a temporary tattoo stain on the body itself, tracing sigils, glyphs, or names of power, especially upon the heart, Venus, and Pisces ruled areas of the body, in addition to meridians and acupuncture points to support organ systems. In ritual, before ritual, or for the purposes of practical enchantment.
It doesn’t matter what skin tone you have (it’s so light it’ll probably only show up on fellow ghost-toned people); what matters is that it’s there 
Incredible versatility…
Offered in a 1 oz glass bottle with brush tip.
Warning: do not apply to the skin of people with honey allergies. External use only.

***this is an update to my previous review since they apparently can't be edited once published.***
I was confused to find an unexpected extra item in my most recent order, until I realized that the S+ team had surprised me with a sparkling new EV ink, a gift which left me feeling quite overwhelmed with gratitude. I can't imagine any other company sending out a full-sized product apropos of nothing simply to correct what was truly the most minor of complaints. They are truly a wonder.
The, I would say, new and improved EV ink features a vivid purple sparkle which does align much closer to the original lavender color. It still dries a bit brownish-yellow, but there is a purple shimmer where the light hits. I've included a new swatch photo for reference.
✨✨Please note that I honestly haven't used the ink enough to speak to its magical effects, this is purely regarding color and aesthetics.✨✨
THANK YOU to the S+ team for being generous and excellent, as always.
I don't know if this is due to the age of product or if it just depends on the batch, but the ink arrived quite dark. It looks greenish black in the bottle but on paper is effectively a sepia tone. I was disappointed, as the color was my main reason for purchasing. Pictured is a few strokes on white card stock.
Inks have become my new favourite form other than incenses to anoint myself and petition papers OFC. This ink is just lovely. Soft color, the scent is just perfectly profiled, and the power it has given to my working Venus altar is just *chefs kiss* buy some!
This ink is so lovely. I am also in awe of how long the inks last....they are truly a potent and long lasting form form of Materia. I've used this ink in workings around self love and finances (since I have Venus in my 2nd house) and love how those asks have turned out. My favorite hack for this ink though is to put a tiny amount in with water and delicate soap when I wash my lingerie! It really adds a boost especially since I wash those items by hand and let everything sit overnight. It has been a fun extension of the self love magic I've been working on. All in all I highly recommend this ink!
Wires got crossed and this was packed in my box instead of Beauty, Hair, and Beard Oil of Venus Exalted II. S&S generously allowed me to keep it--and I'm very glad! A few dabs of this on the perfume points before going out drinking gets me some welcome freebies.
I used this for the first time recently as part of a ritual to promote healing and self love. I painted the Venus glyph over my heart. As soon as the ink touched my skin, before I'd even finished the symbol, there was a palpable flush of Venusian energy and it felt deliciously sensual. Highly recommended.
I'm primarily using this stain above my eyelids - I swipe the brush on the lip of the bottle so there's no excess ink, and then swipe across my upper lid a good distance away from the lash line. I find that if I get the amount right, it feels and wears mostly invisible but helps me enjoy social situations more by reframing how I see them. I think I'm more forgiving of others when I wear this so able to try and enjoy things.
Gorgeous colour that shows up well and works beautifully.
Inks are one of my favorite types of materia, this is a welcome additional to my S+S ink collection. I've been using this for glamour sigils and general Venus blessings. I struggles with Venus work, but love inks, so this is a nice materia to work with for results. Sigils on my arm when I have meetings, need more confidence, have to socialize, or just generally want to feel beauty in my life.
I took a cue from the series' altar working and also inked a magic square of Venus and it is glorious. I love looking at it, makes me feel at peace, and is an instant attunement. On the skin it's barely visible, but definitely felt and has a nice scent. If anything, you could trace your veins (lol) as an act of self-love of the rivers flowing through your own body!
I recently used this to enhance letters sent to loved ones, and writing on quality cardstock saturated with this ink allowed words of affection & care to flow all the more easefully.
Powerful tool to write reminders or desires on your skin that only you. know are there. The light colour plays favourable to this mean.
This is the first ink I have worked with in rituals. Normally, I don't utilize sigils although from time to time I have felt led to. Originally, I thought this ink would be wonderful for consecrating offerings like wine to Venus since the ink would absorb into the label.
But during Leo season, I began a journey of self-actualization and Venus revealed that this ink would be the main tool for these rituals.
I can say that when worn on the skin, the effect is STRONG! And it's the most blissful feeling, like being surrounded by your very own personal cloud of Venusian pleasure.
Dreams come more easily during sleeping with this ink on the body, and I found that I remembered details of the dreams quite well.
Self-love rituals were also more intense; I'm sure that when used with a partner, this ink will provide the same all-encompassing feeling of acceptance and joy.
Truthfully, Venus retrograde was really difficult for me as it landed in my natal 5th house. But this ink and the hydrosol helped immensely; giving what felt like a lavender-laden oasis to me so I could practice self-acceptance and release past selves without wishing them ill.
I'm sure this ink would be great for any Venusian works, but I would especially recommend it for those of us who are hard on ourselves. It reminds me of the Immortal Heart series in that it does not rush you from any emotions you are feeling, but rather gently guides you from any feeling that is not serving your ideal self and allows you to reprogram your way of thinking/seeing your reality.
It is a beautiful feeling!!! And of course, it's a libido booster, but sweetly so.
Thank you, always, to Kaitlin and company for this offering!!!
I will paint this on my skin or petition paper for rituals when the mood strikes me, as well as before I know I will encounter social situations where I could benefit from Venus' support. I most often paint Venus sigils but also names or goals. I'm glad I bought the ink to try it; it's helpful to have this ink on hand for when I want to add a boost of Venus materia to a working.
I'm really vibing with this series in general. I like inks for the versatility. I find it super relaxing and creates a general ease of being.
I know the shade is mentioned as being light in the listing, and in terms of skin, perhaps that's preferable. I just wish that, for use on paper or other surfaces, this could be slightly darker & more opaque. I'm also not entirely a fan of the consistency, but maybe that's the price one pays for "all-natural" (which is exactly what I always want, I try to avoid synthetics in most things & with magic, I absolutely won't fuck with them at all lol)
When I first tried this ink, I found the scent intoxicating & actually just anointed my wrists with it haha... I'm still haven't figured out the best way to work with the inks, but I'm very glad I have my precious EVII & will always use it when inspiration strikes.
I’m a huge fan of all the inks I’ve tried but this was the very first I purchased that got me hooked! Scent isn’t the point but this one sure is nice. I like writing love letters with paper dipped on this delicious ink.
This was the first ink I bought for body-based sigil drawing. I used it under clothes at a professional networking event, and appeared lightly faint on the skin. I not only met potential collaborators but was also asked out on a date! (still dating suitor at time of ✍️ ) It felt like the ink and sigil were casting a spotlight for those to be drawn in.
I was gifted this ink by my partner (thank you, Venus!) and it’s been such a helpful magical tool in sigil work. I’ve used this ink on paper as well as directly on my skin, and both methods create huge impact. The color of the ink is beautiful, too: a light pink-lavender, delicate and pretty.
