Zebra PenMildliner Dual-Tip Highlighter Set, Broad and Fine Tips, Ideal for Bible Highlighting, No Bleed, School Supplies and Teacher Supplies, Refresh and Friendly Ink Colors, 10-Pack (78501)

I bought the assorted 15-pack of Zebra Mildliners back in August 2020, nearly five years ago now, and they're still going strong. I don't use them every day, but when I do, they perform just as well as they did fresh out of the package.The colors are definitely what make these special—mostly muted and pastel tones, with a few brighter, more fluorescent shades like the orange, yellow, and pink, that feel more like traditional highlighter colors. I would have loved to see these in pastel shades, but it's not a big deal and may even be a plus for some. That said, the color of the orange and yellow is quite washed out and difficult to see in dim lighting. Some of Zebra's other packs have more muted versions of these colors if you don't like the fluorescent ones. The full lineup of colors includes red, vermillion, orange, gold, yellow, green, smoke blue, blue, blue green, dark blue, violet, magenta, pink, gray, and brown. Strangely, two of the fifteen (blue and pink) came in the Japanese version for me. The English version is manufactured in Mexico, while the Japanese version is seemingly manufactured in Japan, but thus far I haven't noticed any difference in quality. The ink seems identical, though I can't say for sure if there are any slight variations in color depending on the version you receive.Both the chisel ("bold") and bullet ("fine") tip nibs work well. The chisel tip is great for highlighting, of course, while the bullet tip is more useful for underlining and note-taking. They blend decently well, especially on regular paper. The multimedia paper in my photos absorbs ink too quickly for me to get a smooth transition between colors, but it can be done. The less opaque ink these highlighters have can be layered to deepen the colors; I've used them to color in doodles, and while the colors are streaky (which makes sense, they’re not designed for coloring), they still handle it pretty well. They're quick-drying, water resistant, and smudge-proof, though if you're using them with gel ink pens like I am, make sure the ink is fully dry first—otherwise, they will smear. Some of the lighter colors, like yellow, tend to smear gel ink even if the ink is completely dry.Durability-wise, these are some of the sturdiest highlighters I’ve used. The tips haven’t frayed, the ink hasn’t dried out, the caps still snap on securely, and none of the clips have broken off. I’ve even accidentally stepped on them, and they didn’t crack—not something I can say for a Tombow Dual Brush pen my mom once stepped on (haha). Each cap also snaps onto the other end while in use, so you don’t lose it.One thing to note: while these don't feather or pool, the ink does ghost through thinner paper and can sometimes bleed through very thin papers or if applied too liberally. It's not a deal-breaker, just something to be mindful of if you're using delicate pages or plan on using these in a book or Bible (definitely test them first on an unimportant page).I still carry these with me and reach for them whenever I need a reliable highlighter. They're actually the only highlighters I own now. They hold up beautifully and are so versatile that they're an easy recommendation. Basically, just buy them! The 15-pack is great to get you started, and if you're like me, you'll probably end up picking up some of the other packs to expand your color range.

I absolutely love the Zebra Pen Mildliner Double Ended Highlighter Set! The 15-pack assortment offers such a beautiful range of soft, aesthetically pleasing colors that are easy on the eyes — perfect for both note-taking and creative projects. The dual tips are incredibly useful: the chisel end is great for highlighting text, while the fine bullet tip is ideal for underlining or adding detail to planners and notes.The ink flows smoothly and doesn't bleed through most paper, which is a huge plus for me. These highlighters have completely elevated my study sessions and bullet journal layouts. Whether you're a student, artist, or just someone who loves to organize in style, this set is 100% worth it. Highly recommend!

These are my favorite highlighters. I use them for color coding notes and for marking knitting patterns. I've built up my collection over a few years and my earliest pens still work like new. There is a small amount of bleed through on thin paper where the pen lifts off the page, especially with more saturated colors. If that is a major concern, I recommend the Gentle set as it has almost no bleed through at all on notebook paper.

Perfect for journaling and for use in a planner! They don't bleed even through thinner paper and you have about every color you need in this pack as well, lots of variety. I also like that it is dual tipped so they can be used as highlighters and markers.

These are the best highlighters on the market. The tip is perfect for highlighting readings and there is also a thinner side for more concise work. The colors are cute and pastel, which is easy to see through

I got these to annotate my books (hold your pitchfork lol) and im plesently suprised. I got the florescent pack and the "gentle and neutral" to try and get a good span of color options and while some are a bit similar they are all diffrent somd are definitely more vibrant and some have a stronger pigment. Of the 2 the florescent is my favorite. As for marking books they do a pretty good job at not showing through too much (I've never found any that don't show at all and these are definitely better than normal highlighters I've tested). There are a couple colors that are very faint like the cream but overall I'm quite satisfied

Amazing for my work where I needed to color code things. They also didn’t bleed through! Also the color was true to what the packaging has

I absolutely love these highlighters! The dual tips are incredibly convenient—the broad chisel tip is great for highlighting, while the fine point is perfect for underlining or writing notes. The colors are vibrant yet soft, making my notes visually appealing without being overwhelming. Best of all, they don't bleed through the pages, even in my thin-paged Bible. Whether you're studying, journaling, or organizing your planner, these highlighters are a fantastic choice.
