Perfect fit in my small grip
on August 27, 2026
Posted by: CrissiG
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As soon as I received these pens in the mail and put them in my hand, I knew they’d be my new favorite! The sit perfectly in my hand, the grip isn’t too big or too small, the weight is basically non existent, and I love the way it writes.
I don’t like a fine tip or a “wet” look-pen. For me, this is comparable to a smaller tipped ballpoint but not small enough that the ink gets away from me or wet so that it smears. It’s absolutely perfect for me and I’ve gotten them in every color now.

Great pen
on August 23, 2026

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These were so nice to hold and easy to use! I did find that some of them dried out a little faster, but overall the smoothness of the ink was very satisfying.

There Are Better Options
on June 4, 2026
Posted by: JennaM
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pens are super cute, and I love the color they are, although they still do write in black ink. The writing is a bit rough though, and these tend to skip a lot on certain paper and materials. I am more of a ball point pen person, so they were a bit to sharp for my liking. You do get a decent amount of writing out of one pen, and the pack comes with several others for a reasonable price. Not the best pens ever, but they’re okay.

Smooth, sleek, and reliable — a pen that makes every note feel effortless.
on May 21, 2026
Posted by: LavanchaG
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The kind of pen that makes your handwriting look like you actually tried. The 0.7mm tip glides smooth without smudging everything five seconds later, and the ocean fog barrel gives it that clean, expensive feel instead of the basic pen vibe. Writes dark, crisp and satisfying definitely one of those pen you “borrow” once and never give it back.

Best pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great pen for my every day use especially when I am in hospital and I have to take quick notes. Doesn’t get dry and provide that excellent gel finish which is best.
