Lovely set of highlighters.
Absolutely adore these mildliners. They're not blindingly fluoro like usual highlighters, but are generally more muted and pastel (with a couple of exceptions).The pink pack is great for highlighting since all the colours are light and pale - although it's a bit hard to tell the difference between the blue and the blue/green in this pack. The other two packs have darker/bolder colours, but still usable for highlighting - the grey and gold are my favourites.
At first, the pens were very inky and bled through the page, but after a couple of uses, that problem is resolved. The two tips are also useful - when the font/my handwriting is really small, I use the fine tip to highlight, but this tip is also good for writing headings with the darker colours (not so much with the pink pack since it's a bit hard to see those properly in writing).
Colours:
- Pink Pack: Pink, Orange, Yellow, Blue-Green, Blue
- Yellow Pack: Smoke Blue, Magenta, Gold, Vermilion, Brown
- Blue Pack: Green, Dark Blue, Grey, Violet, Red
And the price isn't bad at all. Cost me about $25 AUD ($1.65 for each pen), much better value than the fluoro highlighters I would find in my local office supplies store. Basically 2 for the price of one with the double tips.
All in all, great buy.
