[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the colors and ink quality. The pens write easily, good value, and comfortable to hold when writing for a while or length of time. Good value
Purple and blue are great, yellow isn’t.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The yellow wasn’t a good choice in pen color, but the others are bright and vivid. Great gel pens, once you got to writing with them a bit. I almost thought the purple one died, But it I just needed to scribble to get the ink flowing more.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the colors of these pens. The ink flowed well. I love Inkjoy Gel ink, so I knew it would be a smooth experience. I did not like the texture or grip feeling of the pen, though. But for a value pack, it’s a fun collection.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I liked the pens when writing I felt like I had a good grip on them and they were really comfortable to write with for a long period of time. I did encounter an issue they would like sometimes like get stuck and stop writing. But overall they are great.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging was very slim. The comfort of holding this pen was immaculate. Ink flow let's go there. The flow was really really good and the value of these pens are amazing . I love ink joy pens. I believe they are the best pens out there.
Perfect Mark!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high expectations for the Paper Mate InkJoy Gel Pens, but they didn’t feel as smooth as I expected from a gel pen. While the ink is vibrant and dries quickly—great for preventing smudging—the writing experience wasn’t as soft or effortless as other gel pens I’ve used. The ink flow feels a bit inconsistent at times, making it less fluid than I hoped. On the plus side, the pens have a comfortable grip, making them easy to hold for extended writing sessions. However, if you’re looking for an ultra-smooth, buttery gel pen, this might not be the best choice. It’s decent for everyday use but doesn’t quite deliver the silky glide I was expecting.
They dry quickly!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I found these pens to be easy/smooth to write with. The pen is easy to grip and the ink dries very quickly- as a lefty, that’s very important! I like that I didn’t have to struggle with the packaging and the packaging came with instructions on moving the wax ball so there’d be no confusion for those that aren’t aware.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens came in a 4 pack of 4 different colors, however, they all write with black ink. I like the texture of the outside of the pens, it feels like butter slime, & has a good grip. The ink writes so smoothly! I would definitely buy these pens, they are worth it!!
Great colors and comfy in my hand!

I love the paper mate ink joy pens! I've been using them for over 2 years for school and love how well they write, my only issue is how common it is to smudge them, but they do dry quicker than most pens, just use caution when writing!
A+ Pens!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens work great! They are super dark and I love how they glide over the page when writing with them. They have a soft touch covering which makes it comfortable to grip and hold. They come in a 4 pack in a variety of vibrant colors. They do write out with black ink and are not colored pens. These are great for variety of purposes at home, school, and the office. Great value for the money.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used gel pens when I was a young girl—most of my journals and notepads were full of colorful and glittery doodles from gel pens, and I was obsessed. Sure, the pens were scratchy, skipped, and smeared everywhere (including the side of my own hand while I was writing), but I didn’t expect anything better—I thought they were so creative and fun that I didn’t mind. Fast forward many years later, I haven’t used gel pens in 20 years (at least) for all of the reasons mentioned, not to mention having needed to switch to something more “grown up” when I went to university. Then Influenster sent me these for free to review! And I could not be happier or more astonished by them! They are smooth, dry quickly, don’t skip, and come in fun colors. There is a window to see the ink level along the side. There is a wide, non-slippery barrel to hold onto. It’s almost like they made nostalgic gel pens…for grownups!!! I want all of the colors. I love them so much!
