ARTEZAGel Pens, 60 Colours, 0.8–1.0 mm Tips, Glitter, Metallic, Pastel, Neon, Rainbow Hues, Writing Pens for Scrapbooking, Doodling, and Journaling

I was looking forward to receiving these pens as I had heard great reviews, but although they came looking fabulous I was soon disappointed.A few of the lighter colours were so pale that they were unusable on anything other than black, which is fine but that wasn’t what I wanted them for, even on black paper they were pale. A number of the pens wouldn’t work at all, I emailed arteza and they suggested placing a little bit of warm water on the nib to get them flowing, it didn’t work on all of the pens, a purple glitter one wrote for a quarter of a page in a small moleskin notebook, then ran out of ink, I can see through the main body of the pen and it’s empty. I appreciate that these are cheaper pens but I think you do get what you pay for in this case.Gave 2 stars as the colours were fab and they were well presented, just let down by the actual ink.

I’ve not quite made up my mind regarding Arteza gel pens. I feel that there are too many zingy bright colours. (Maybe other people like that). Could have done with some earthy colours in the pack. Some of the pens felt a bit scratchy with little colour coming out whilst other pens had a really nice flow. Until I’ve used them more I’m sitting on the fence on this one.

Good pens with a nice range of nib sizes. Cream when used on white paper. Have had some slight issues with flow, but not too bad. Dries a bit chalky. So if using with fine liners, beware they can clog up on the tip and you need to wipe the tip of those pens. Make sue you let them dry, but can smudge a bit when dry aswell due to them being a but chalky. Despite that, good pens.

Basically these pens are a 9/10.They never got a 10 due to one (the pine green) not working as well as the fact they seemed scratchy but that was only some of the darker colours.The pens overall are great. The colour is smooth ,easy to build up layers and dries quick, which is good if you're a leftie like I am. (Hello smudges lol)I did complain and recieved not only my money back. But a £5 promotional credit.I recieved these as a gift from my hubby. Who this account is in the name of.

The gel pens are of very good quality. I was thinking given the number of pens the colours will repeat but it is 60 different shades and no repetition. Will definitely buy again after I run out of colours
