An aggregation stabilizer is further added to an ink composition for inkjet recording which contains a colorant, a humectant, water, and a water-soluble substance that is condensation-polymerized in the absence of the water. With this aggregation stabilizer, a hardly-soluble or insoluble component formed by the colorant and the water-soluble substance is modified so as to be readily dissolved in water, whereby generation of an aggregate in the ink is prevented. |
