ZEBRA MILD LINER, Double Sided Highlighter, 5 Set (WKT7-5C)

these are really cute, but instead of the normal mild liner logo, there are some weird Korean language on it. I don’t know what it means but other than that it looks just like the normal ones that you see at school. Comes in all the colors you need red orange, yellow, green and blue.

After having so many pages of my textbook bleed yellow from cheap, yellow highlighters I knew I was in dire need of new ones. I read a few reviews and took a chance on these highlighters since a lot of reviewers pointed out that these don't bleed and I can now say these were the right choice and are the best highlighters I've used so far! I no longer have issues with bleeding pages and these colors are super cute. They show up really light on my pages and aren't neon bright but that doesn't bother me. I actually kind of like the subtle color.These highlighters come in a 5 pack with pink, orange, yellow, green, and blue. I find that the blue and green look similar as does the orange and yellow. I keep a tissue next to me because I noticed that after you lift the highlighter it leaves an ink blot at the end. I just use the tissue and dab it up so it doesn't dry as a darker color. Another tip is that these highlighters are DOUBLE SIDED. There is a bold side and a fine side. I actually didn't find out until I looked closely at the highlighter pen itself. I thought this feature was amazing! So far I'm loving these highlighters and I actually went and bought the 15 pack so now I have more colors to play around with!

The Zebra Mildliners has always been one of the best known highlighters for notetaking. They last very long and are don't break. But make sure to not press really hard because that will ruin the tip and destroy the highlighter. It is even better because it is double sided with the chiseled side and the other tip side. Overall the Mildliners and a really good highlighter and I would recommend.

I have three problems with highlighters, which sent me searching across the internet for something different:1) Ink that is too dark to see through. I'm trying to highlight, not redact here....2) Ink that bleeds through the page3) Ink that comes out of the highlighter so heavy that it leaves a big drop of ink at the end of the strokeThese highlighters do very well with #1 and #2, but leave a little to be desired on #3. The ink is very, very mild, but also very distinct. You won't miss anything that you're highlighting, and you also won't bleed through to the other side of the page. The ink flow was a little heavy when I first got them, but after a few hours of use they dried out a little bit and are now working much better. I haven't had them long enough to comment on longevity, but I've had them long enough to say their lifespan is respectable and reasonable.The coordinated color palate really makes your notes look nice by the time you're done marking them up. I used this recently to color code information as I went through an exam prep book and it REALLY made a huge difference having the information broken up by color codes. Everyone who saw the book was jealous.I do have a single problem with these highlighters -- the ink takes a LONG time to dry. On the book I was highlighting, which admittedly has slick paper, these took several minutes to dry, which often felt like an eternity. Other than that I have nothing bad to say about them.

The packaging of the highlighters is very nice. I think I'm going to have to buy the other two sets because they look so nice. At first, they bled a lot, but after using them for a while, they don't bleed through pages anymore. The colors are pretty. The pink, orange, and yellow are mildly fluorescent, but the blue-green and blue aren't. The blue-green and blue highlighter are very similar in color. The blue is like a pastel blue, and the blue-green is like a pastel seafood green, but the are very similar.I don't really understand why they had to have two tips. A chisel tip can easily create a thin line if rotated... But that's okay, because it doesn't really hinder the ability of the highlighter. I just don't get why'd they add a tip that is almost useless.Lastly, I compared these to the Bic Briteliners. The Bic ones were slightly more intense in color, but when writing/highlighting, they felt a lot smoother compared to the Mildliners. The Bic highlighters did not smudge, whereas the pink mildiner smudged just a teensy bit.In conclusion, this is a nice set, but I think it's more appealing aesthetic wise. The packaging is very minimalistic and cute. The colors are somewhat paler than 'regular' highlighters, but I don't like how two of the colors are extraordinary similar. I think I will buy the set with the green, purple, grey, blue, and red, because I really want a purple and a true green to complete this set.
