An ink composition having excellent ejection stability and adhesion, a recording apparatus using the ink composition, and a recording method are provided. One aspect of the present invention is an ink composition that includes a coloring material, water, first polymer particles, and second polymer particles, and is recorded on a heated recording medium, wherein the first polymer particles include: The second polymer particles have a core-shell structure having a second core polymer and a second shell polymer, the first shell polymer and the second shell polymer having a core-shell structure having a first core polymer and a first shell polymer. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of the shell polymer is 40 ° C. or higher, and the glass transition temperature Tg of the first shell polymer is higher than the Tg of the second shell polymer.
