I've tried different kinds of gel pens and in my opinion, the Pentel gel pens are the best. I use the Sparkle Pop gel pens, the Milky Pop, and the Sunburst ones. And I want to get some of the Mattehop ones to try but I haven't tried them yet. The Pentel gel pens are never scratchy and they always write very smoothly without the ink cutting out or skipping. They're my favorite! And Gelly Roll are my second favorite! I love the Gelly Roll glaze pens! The Pentel Milky Pop set comes with a really good opaque white
I think that paint sticks are much much faster drying. you cant really blend them and once they are down they really don't move - whereas gel crayons are much more forgiving. you can blend them a bit and they behave a bit more like oil pastels in that its best if you 'fix' them after use. the paint sticks don't need to be fixed, they dry completely and permanently.
Take very good care of yourself!!! I am glad glad to see you got yourself goodies!!!! love the paints!!
Thanks so much. I'm doing my very best. Appreciate you stopping by!

I'm a huge fan of the sparklepop. i buy them open stock all the time. Next time i have the means i will try more pentel ones. :)
@@winter89_colours Yea I love them! Oh and the dual metallic hybrid ones are awesome too!
Nice goodies! Do you think the paint sticks are just gel sticks with a different name?
