An ink set for ink jet recording that achieves both high speed and high image quality, and ensures its reliability, an ink jet ink tank for storing the ink set for ink jet recording, and an ink jet recording method using the ink set for ink jet recording And an inkjet recording apparatus. A black ink, a cyan ink, a magenta ink, and a yellow ink each containing at least a coloring material, a water-soluble solvent, and water, and a colorless or light-colored liquid composition that aggregates and / or thickens these inks. A surface tension γ ink of each ink, a surface tension γ liquid of the liquid composition, a viscosity η ink of the ink , and a viscosity of the liquid composition. η liquid , conductivity σ ink of each of the inks, and conductivity σ liquid of the liquid composition have a specific relationship.
