Paper Mate Metallic 3ct

I bought these to grade papers with. I love gel pens but they never last. This is a good brand so I had high hopes. The gold is basically yellow. Way too light. And the bronze one worked to grade three assignments. So it was gone in less than a week. Super disappointed in the short life span of these pens. And only the bronze one is really dark enough to see.

perfect gel pens for fall/ winter. Writes well no complaints.

It’s been 2 months and the ink has dried out in 2 of the pens🫤

I have many Ink Joy pens and they usually write so well, however these(metallics) are awful. They skip a lot.

I tried the three colors out on different papers/materials. The rose gold and gold show up on most backgrounds. The silver is only showing up when you look from an angle and it's looking bluish/slate grey (the black background is the back of the packaging). My gold and silver pens skip a little when I first start using it. Still fun and whimsical, great for 5 dollars

Skip, terrible writing, I usually love in joy, disappointment

Smooth writing doesn't bleed and unique colors. Worth the purchase and I highly recommend them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Comfortable while writing, simple aesthetic packaging. Write beautifully and love the colors. Love that it comes with 3 pens for such a low cost!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to give these 5 stars, but some of the pens write as though they’re drying out already. The ones that do write well are beautiful though! I love the click design for a metallic pen as well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Meh. I've used this brand before, but I wasn't impressed with these pens. The colors just didn't feel saturated and I didn't feel like they wrote as smoothly as I'd like.

Love these pens! I love metallicsin general

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pens are very cute great print quality ink was nice and thick. Very reliable speed of ink was great very pretty colors. Very vibrant easy to handle.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This pen writes amazing , I love the variety of colors that it comes with . You can write very fast with these pens . It’s very pigmented and the ink last a long time . It’s very reliable and easy to find in your purse and it’s connects to the paper well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted to love these because I’m a teacher so pens are a big deal for us! It seemed to not last as long as I hoped. The print was fine and the ink didn’t bleed much.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love a good gel pen. Paper Mate makes great pens. These colors are really fun, but some of the lighter colors were hard to see. I would opt for a package with darker colors as they were more vibrant!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pens feel really comfortable to hold and nice texture. The ink is a bit wet and thick which looks lovely but smudges easily. The yellow didn’t show us as strongly but the orange color looks amazing!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this is just pure nostalgia in a pen. As a millennial, my heart skips a beat just holding a gel pen, let alone a…metallic gel pen. Needless to say this is a great pen to write cute notes and use for crafts. I could see this writing well over dark paper. I personally offer one of these pens for students to use for their “show work” in school. Kids get excited just like I used to do AND it gets them back on task when they don’t want to write. Only downside with the metallic pens is they can get a little streaky with the wrong amount of pressure or if a piece of something gets lodged somewhere at the tip. Overall a great pen to have on the desk.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes for these pens, but they skip a lot, even right out of the packaging! It’s hard to write a full word without it looking like it ran out of ink

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pens are so fun! I love the fact they show up on light or dark paper. I love all the colors. When I tested these pens, it seemed like some colors wrote smoother than others, but that could have been because not all the pens had that little gel cap on the end. I’m hoping with more use the ink will start to flow a little better and faster.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly love the grey and the bronze colored pens! They add a little sparkle to notes or letters and provide a much needed change up from traditional blue or black pens. They feel smooth and fast on paper and glide when writing. The only reason why this is a 4 star and not a 5 is that the yellow pen was a let down. The ink was not as reliable as the other two colors and was generally difficult to see on traditional white paper.
