🌿 My 5 Most Used Pens {Video Review}

🌿 I have a lot of pens. So. Many. Pens. My favorites range from the pretty, bronze Y&C Gel Xtreme to a simple Bic ballpoint freebie given out by a neighborhood business. 

Today, though, we're looking at my Top 5 Most Used Pens. These are my everyday carry pens used for functional planning, bullet journaling, art journaling, signing checks, and addressing envelopes. 

In my YouTube video (see below), I've reviewed these using a Leuchtturm1917 journal. We'll do a water test, look at smudging, and consider the benefits of a brush-tipped highlighter versus the typical chisel point variety.
