There is also a pale pink cap color that goes with a marker that is actually a really unattractive salmon color ink.

The quality of these markers is excellent, but I am very disappointed with the deceptive cap colors.

I was so excited.... and as I started trying out the pens my heart sank.... they were uninspiring, and I realized that the caps were loose on more than one third of the pens

For example, the ink color for the marker with the pale lavender cap (top row, right side, directly to the left of a light grey marker) is actually eggplant, something I did not discover until I started coloring with it in one of Johanna Basford's

As an example, the pen with the pale purple cap is a deep purple, nearly black

For example, I found the pale lavender marker cap to cover a nice rich dark purple color.

Also, you can leave the cap of the pen for a while and they still work

I use these for adult coloring books, so I used a sharpie to number all the caps, and I have a cheat sheet that shows each pen/number corresponding to its true ink color

For example, the ink color for the marker with the pale lavender cap (top row, right side, directly to the left of a light grey marker) is actually eggplant, something I did not discover until I started coloring with it in one of Johanna Basford's

The box also gives a pretty good idea of what the color of the ink is going to be as well as the caps

Most are much darker, but a turquoise one that has a darker cap/end is actually a very very light aqua.

As I was rewriting my notes, the cap came off and my cat stole it

Also, FYI, I will vouch for the fact that NONE of the colors look like the cap's color

I have lost caps and still been able to use the pens

Pros:- Slightly sturdier feeling than Stabilo (like the shape better)- Don't bleed as much as

They're great for coloring as they don't bleed through the way other markers do (unless you press way too hard or go over one spot way too many times

Be careful if you are drawing over pencil though, as they will smudge if you don't give enough drying time before erasing the pencil underneath

I use them to color as well as to color code my planner

Keep in mind, that the camera won't pick up pigmentation as well as in person

They DO NOT BLEED out as you are coloring.

Not as great as I had hoped.

Some don't work as

and so I know what colour they really work as
