OMG guys... These are amazing!

Maybe I have been hiding under a rock or something, but when did erasable GEL pens come out? I originally saw them on Instagram, from I forgot who, so let me know if it was you because I owe you a big kiss. I have been looking for a fun, colorful pen for my FIRST ERIN CONDREN planner that is on order so wanted to give these a try. Besides loving school supplies, bright colors, and pens in general, the erasable part is just fabulous! I stink at SPELLING and my plan book is always changing so I thought if these worked it would be awesome! I had my doubts...major doubts. I mean gel that erases? 

Well I bought them on Amazon because taking two babies into Staples is hell, and  received them in two days. They are made by Pilot, which is a trustworthy brand in my opinion, so I had high hopes.


So when I got them and tried them I realized they didn't have erasers on them an they are called "frixion" for a reason. No eraser means no breakable or use-upable pieces. It's basically just a plastic tip and the ink disappears when it is rubbed...hence the name. I was blown away trying these. (I know...it's the small things in life. Right?) I quickly made a video and sent it to Robyn, my partner in crime. She immediately claimed the pink one. Lol I took purple and we gave green to our other BFF teacher. I can't wait to test them out on my planner...when that arrives! I see myself buying tons of these in the future! :)


Don't mind the green nail polish (had green and white day last week) or the children talking in the background...my house is normally a zoo.

I am still super psyched at how well these worked! I would definitely (and just did) recommend them to everyone! :)

*I was not asked, paid, or told to review these pens and will receive nothing from Pilot for this review. I simply love fun/helpful supplies and wanted to share my love for these pens!*


So anyone want to share any other life changing discoveries with me?

  2. Oh boy. I'm going to head to Amazon now because I still have NOT written in my Erin Condren planner. I think I may need these pens. I love pens. It's totally unhealthy. "Thanks" for sharing this! ;O)

  3. I bought some yesterday at Office Depot to try out before I went crazy and ordered the big pack with tons of colors. I'm not a huge fan of gel pens but I do need an erasable pen for my planner because I know I will need to make changes. I may grow to love them more as I use them. They do erase pretty well!
