They have great pigment but in a muted, pastel tones, so none of that harsh neon color on my planner pages!

I bought these due to their paleness in color since I do not like using the harsh neon highlighters when taking notes and highlighting in textbooks and loved them

I'm so happy there are so many gorgeous choices for highlights instead that horrible neon yellow

Usually when I buy a pack of assorted color highlighters, I end up chucking out the purples and blues, and sometimes greens because they are too dark, and a lot of pinks and yellows because they are too neon and hurt my eyes.
