Gel Pens

Write in style with premium gel pens. Gel pens feature ink that is not only smooth and vivid but also more resistant to water or age than their water-based counterparts. Our gel pens also come in a couple of styles like traditional capped pens or retractable. The bold ink tends to stay true-to-colour even on dark surfaces so you can even experiment with writing or drawing on black paper. These are great tools for drawing, illustration, practising penmanship and more. Get yourself a set today and experience why artists love gel pens.

 

What are gel pens good for? Gel pens are ideal for a wide variety of everyday tasks. Many people enjoy using them for note-taking because the ink looks bold and legible, plus it dries quickly so you won’t have any unsightly smudges. Some artists also use them colouring thanks to their small nibs and large range of colours. You can use them to apply texture and embellishments to even some of the smallest areas. 

 

Are gel pens better than ballpoint? It is difficult to compare gel pens with ballpoint pens as a lot depends on what you want to use them for. The varying types of ink they use also makes a difference. Gel ink tends to dry quickly to prevent smudges but also flows freely enough for smooth writing or colouring. The viscous ink found in ballpoints require more pressure to write but are well suited to slick surfaces. Gel pens also come in a range of styles that produce different finishes, such as glitter gel pens, which can't be achieved with other inks.

 

Do gel pens bleed? No, gel pens do not tend to bleed. Thanks to the thickness of the ink and how quickly it dries, gel pens produce virtually no bleed through even the thinnest of paper.
