I must say that I am usually not that impressed with art mediums like gel pens in general. While I like them, a lot of sets have some that don't color very well, or they don't dry very fast, so smearing is a real problem. These advertised that they don't smear due to something in the ink that makes it dry fast and they weren't kidding. I colored a little mark on a test paper and no smear immediately after applying. I love these. In addition to that, these so far although I have not tried all of the pens yet, the ones I have used are smooth and color extremely well. If I find any that aren't as good or don't work I will come here to update. For all colorists who keep pulling their hair out of their head due to smearing these are a Godsend. Truly awesome. I can't recommend them enough. Best gel pens I have had since I started investing in them this year. When these run out I will be buying more.
