Paper Mate Flair Felt Tip Pens, #1 Teacher Choice, Medium Point, 0.7mm, Metallic City Lights, 8 Count

Great product at a fair price, arrived in just a week. These are "fine tip" felt markers so you can easily write a legible note. I bought these to put my initials on greeting cards I make so the product is perfect for me. I wrote something with each color... picture attached.

Love these pens!! I got them for Christmas cards. I love the sparkle in them, subtle but noticable. They write very smoothly. I did have to take away a star as, the picture shows a BLUE pen in there - I did not get a blue pen 😑

I love flair pens. I got super excited about these. Initially- I was pleased. However, these dry out a lot quicker than the regular flair pens- so they got thrown away fairly quickly.

These are fun to write with and have great color. The ink looks like a gel pen ink, meaning it will cover other colors rather than blending in. My only complaint was that one of the pens was dried out straight out of the package but might have just been a fluke.

These pens write really nice and have a great metallic gleam to them. Out of the box there was a pen that didn't write correctly and there were 2 more that didn't write at all as the ink wasn't even down into the felt tip. I contacted the company for warranty and I had to send the 3 pens to them and wait for them to send replacements which took a couple weeks from start to finish which was pretty inconvenient for a $10 pack of pens, I should have just returned the pack to the store but it's ok.

I gave this product 2 stars because all 8 of the pens did work. These pens however should not be called metallic as they have absolutely no metallic sheen. They perhaps could be called glittery, but only inconsistently glittery and some colors not at all glittery. I swatched all the pens on watercolor paper (image 1) and a 60 lb copy paper (image 2). You can see the difference between Sakura Gelly Roll Metallic pens and these in image 2. Despite the claim that these "won't bleed through paper", image 3 shows that they did bleed through the 60 lb copy paper in spots. For the same amount of money as these 8 pens I would buy the 10 pack of Sakura Gelly Roll Metallic Pens and the results will be much better.

Don’t buy. I took the risk expecting all of mine to work unlike most of the reviews. Two of the pens write like they are out of ink. The shimmer isn’t very noticeable either. They don’t look like the packaging describes.

I bought these today and they are already dried out. I just opened them about 5 minutes ago. Several of them are struggling to write. I buy these types of pens all the time. I am very disappointed.

I have Paper Mate in every drawer in my home. They are used daily. i was excited to have metallic ones to add to my collection. i am so disappointed in these pens. Two do not work at all, 1 that the tip bends when writting , and 1 that works only after I shake it. Lessoned Learned.

you have to store them tip down or else they dry out very quickly. I work twelve hour shifts with them in my scrub pockets and brand new the would work at the beginning of my shift and not work at the end. Threw each pen away after one day use
