BIC Cristal Fun Ballpoint Pens with 5 Assorted Ink Colours, Wide Point (1.6 mm), Pack of 10

Pens are lovely vibrant colours and a dream to write with. Great value.

These pens come in such lovely colours, and best of all, they write really nice. Each day I use a different colour. Fabulous pens

I have the 15 colours pack and yes, these ones are the ones which I use the most.

Lovely colours. Slightly thicker nip than I would have liked - my fault for not researching properly.

I love these pens- it’s good for writing titles and doodling and anything you want to make stand out. I don’t think it’s adequate for writing things eg essay or anything as the nib is quite big. The colours are so pretty. The pink stands out the most I would say. I would purchase again. But I am happy with this product.

This pack of BIC Cristal Fun Ball pens arrives from Amazon in one of their brown cardboard packages. I chose the set of ten for £3 rather than the set of four for £2.99 as it seemed a no-brainer value wise. There is an option for twenty pens for just under £5 and these are available on the Amazon Subscribe and Save programme so you can get them delivered every month (or whichever frequency you choose) at a discount.The pens are in unusual and bright colours rather than the normal black, blue, red and green. In the ten pack set you receive three pink, three baby blue, two purple and two green.They are very similar to any other BIC ball point pens in shape and size but obviously the ink is different. The lids and the end of the pens are colour matched to indicate the shade. The ten pack contains the pens in a plastic wrapper and the twenty pack is boxed.How do they work? Well. To start I was a little confused as I could not get them to work. I tried the usual tricks of doing ticks and squiggles and still no luck. Believing that the chances of all ten being duds, I persevered and noticed there was a blob of something on the end of each ball point. I removed this blob and the pen works. All have this blob so I presume it is to prevent the ink from drying? There is no reference to this on the packaging. Now I am up and running – or writing – with the pens, I love them. They are fun and bright and don’t seem to smudge or anything. I love them.

Very nice colours - do let it dry for a little bit as it can smudge if you touch straight away. Also, the pens feel nice to hold and write with.

Like every house hold whenever you need a pen there never is one available to hand, which is why I bought these.
