PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a higher quality ink jet recorded matter which is excellent in coloring property, effectively prevents bleeding, and improves fixability even when forming a colored portion using a plurality of liquids. Provided are an ink set that can be obtained, a method for forming a colored portion on a recording medium, and an ink jet recording apparatus. SOLUTION: An anionic or cationic aqueous ink containing a coloring material and a liquid composition used for forming a colored portion on the recording medium by applying the aqueous ink together with the aqueous ink to the recording medium are provided. In the ink set, the aqueous ink contains a coloring material, and at least one or more salts separately from the coloring material, and the surface of the liquid composition has a polarity opposite to that of the aqueous ink. An ink set comprising a liquid composition and an aqueous ink comprising charged fine particles in a dispersed state, a method for forming a colored portion on a recording medium, and an ink jet recording apparatus. |
