Mr. PenRetractable Gel Pens for Journaling, 22 Pack, Pastel, Morandi and Vintage Color Inks, Fast Dry, Colorful & Soft grip Barrels, Smooth Writing, 0.7mm Fine Point Aesthetic Pens

These are really nice gel pens. I had never used a Mr. Pen product so decided to try these. I was attracted to the pen colors in this set. They are quite different than what’s offered in most gel pen sets. When opened, the ink flowed smoothly in every single pen, were juicy and very pigmented. Only 2 colors were close to the same with all others very different from each other. A tiny complaint would be that the pen color doesn’t match the pen body but the pen body colors are so pretty that it’s a minor issue. Since it’s a smaller set, you can quickly learn the colors. On that note, I like these so much I wish they were available in a larger set. Also note, these are not sparkly or metallic, which is a nice change also. Mr. Pen offers an attractive sort of warranty in that you can contact them if you have any issues and I believe they will replace them. Nice. Final thoughts: I will definitely be trying more Mr. Pen products. Highly recommend.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I purchased these pens after seeing a Pen Test by Memories By Meyers! She showed how smoothly these pens wrote and right away I was sold! I was also excited to see that these were Mr. Pen brand! I love Mr. Pen brand! Like always, they came with a cute little mustache sticker…which my kiddos always fight over! These pens write smooth like butter and the ink does not “skip” as you are writing!

Great with a caveat.Colors are fun and smooth, most are opaque. You do have to make sure they are SUPER dry before you try to go over them, say to fill in a missing spot, and then you must go lightly or the ink will scratch back up. The only bummer is the barrel color is not even close on some of the colors. I made swatches on sticky labels so I know what I'm actually getting. A bit of a bummer, because thevarrel color on the light violet and pinks were some of the colors I was looking forward to! In the photo, you can see some are not as opaque as others.

I LOVE THESE! They are so so cute and they have super good colors and aren’t like crappy colored pens I have had before. They write super nice and they aren’t like the pens that you have to scribble with before you get any ink out. They don’t leak and they are great add pops of color to anything.

I originally would have given these a 4 star. However after using them for awhile it seems that the ink seems to be stuck at times and I have to shake the cartridge or scribbling forever to get it to write smoothly. I was also disappointed to see that the color of ink does not match the color of the pens on all of them. Which makes color coding things harder.

Pens are great. Run smooth and the ink is nice and thick.Like some others have said, some of pens' barrel colors don't actually match the ink color. I am not bothered by it, though; I just marked them all with color swatches. I took a picture so you all could see what the actual colors are. Swatches were done on masking tape lol

super fun and cute pens! as you can tell, i got distracted with these a bit haha. i was writing on a rough surface and they still wrote soft, overall pretty good quality 👍

Ink flow is not the best at all. It’s very patchy and not smooth. The design of the pen is very nice and I love them I just wish they wrote better.
