About the Pastel Gel Pens
This gorgeous eight-pack of pastel pens comes in seven colors. Their colors include:
Pink
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Purple
White (2)
The Pentel Milky Pop pens have vivid colored opaque ink that allows them to write on light and dark colored paper. As you can see in the comparison photo, the colors really pop off the page!
The tip is a 0.8mm metal tip that writes medium lines. These pens are fantastic for bullet journaling, notes, doodles, arts and crafts, cards, and more!
This fun pack of pens comes in a set of five. There are four pastel gel pens, and the fifth is the popular classic black. The pastel colors include:
Pink
Yellow
Green
Blue
These pens feature a fine point 0.7mm metal tip. This makes these pens great for detailed doodling, drawing, bullet journaling, notes, and crafts.
Contrast Between Pentel Milky Pens & G2 Pastels
Pentel Milky Pens
This set has three more colors included: orange, purple, and white.
They write in bold lines instead of a fine line.
The gel is slightly more opaque, giving it a richer vibrancy.
The extra-long balanced barrel gives this pen effortless control in hand, making these pens comfortable to use.
Latex-free comfort grip.
G2 Pastel Gel Pens
These pens have a fine point instead of bold.
Includes a rubber grip for slip-free writing.
These pens are retractable and cap-free for convenience.
These pens are refillable!
Final Thoughts
Overall, these two sets of pastel gel pens are ideal for:
Bullet journaling
Colorful notes to keep thoughts organized
Doodling and zen-doodling
Art projects
Use on different colors of paper, like the Neapolitan notepads and journals from Archer & Olive
Cards
Scrapbooking and more!
I can see why these two sets are top-rated gel pens. They both are comfortable to use and have a smooth flowing gel that looks fantastic on any color of paper you use.
If I had to pick one set over the other, I would choose the Pentel Milky Pop pens. The simple reason is the extra colors in the set are so appealing to my artistic eye. In all honesty, I love them both.
Which set is right for you?
