Zebra Pen Mildliner Double Ended Highlighter Broad and Fine Tips Assorted colors 15-Count

Product Information

As a highlighter personally I don’t think these are the best around. I much prefer the Bic grip highlighters or the Stabilo Boss. The only one that didn’t smudge at all was the Staples hype highlighter. So I would say that here the mildliner was average compared to the other highlighters but most of them failed this test!

Because the chisel of the Mildliners are particularly small compared to other highlighter pens it is likely that you will experience some saturation when trying to highlight or decorate something. If you want to use the mildliners just for highlighting bullet journals and littler decoration there are other brands that offer similar products such as Pilot Frixion, Bic, Stalilo, Propus, Muji, and a variety of cheap pastel highlighters that you can use. I have performed 2 tests. The first one is related to how mildliners behave when highlighting a variety of writing pens that bullet journalists use often!

The MILDLINER Double-Ended Creative Highlighter is the original tool for artists, students, and everyday use. The two unique ends—including a chisel tip and a bullet fine tip—and its mild, translucent ink make it a truly unique product. MILDLINER is also available in a Dual-Tip Brush Pen, helping you hand letter and more at ease. With so many color varieties and uses, you may not know where or how to start. This guide will show you how to get the most out of MILDLINER . If you think the bright highlighter colors are overrated then these pens will bring nicer fresher tones to your collection. In the second test I compared mildliners with other highlighters using the same writing pen (the Staedtler Pigment Liner) to see how much smudge they produced.

As you can see their price is very reasonable compared to the competitors, therefore I think the pricing is a pro advantage. In my opinion, the mildliners come in a great color variety that can be an asset for bullet journalists and creatives who like to play with colors on the paper. I love the pastel color set especially and think that this one is pretty irreplaceable if I try to compare it with other inks I have here. To test for ghosting and bleeding is super important because most of us use these pens to highlight text or decorate while bullet journaling.

The saturation of the mildliners leaves a trace where you can clearly see that two (or more) strokes have overlapped. While many people don’t like the aesthetics of it, what worries me is the fact that mildliners could bleed on the other side of the paper. The Midliners are also dual tip pens; they have a broad chisel tip on one end and a bullet fine tip on the other end of the pen. This allows you to not only highlight text but also underline and write notes with the fine tip. The worst smudged fineliners were the Pentel and the Faber castell ones. The gel pen was terrible but that was expected as a gel pen takes a lot longer to dry compared to fineliners.
