I have mentioned several times (I think ) that I'm a planner addict. And as a planner addict, I'm addicted to anything planner related stuff including pens. Pengem is a US brand pen with crystals inside and a gem on top. It's a very pretty pen that comes with a ball point refill that you can later on change into a gel ink pen. In the US this costs $9-10 each depending on the type of pen. I think there's also a $12 one but I forgot. The ones I got were $9 each and free shipping in the US address for orders $25 up! They are so pretty and I love it so much. I prefer the gel ink though than the ballpoint ink. However, I'll just consume the ink that it comes with before changing into my preferred type! I know this is the digital age but I still prefer writing on an actual piece of paper with a pretty pen! Don't you just love glittery pens?

Weeeehhhh, we have a lot in common ! It's the first time I've tried this pen. I usually use a fountain pen from pilot, the pilot prera. I also use coleto pens. But pengems are just so pretty! I can't resist not getting myself any.

I am fond of taking notes even nowadays that I used my online calendar to set my schedules. Whenever I have free time, I would take out my note and will start writing, sometimes articles or anything that I can think of. Having a nice pen is a good thing to have. I still remember my high school days when I need to write in order communicate. Yes, they are very pretty and would want to have some of those too.

@toniganzon That's already very expensive. But of course, a good product demands a high price.

those are beautiful pens. for me, since i use the blue, red, and black pens, i buy the cheap pens, but i use the ballpoint pens sent or brought home by my brother- the BIC and the papermate. once a bought a Pilot, but when it fell, i could not use it anymore.

I have tons of pens I love and pengems are just my newest collation. I love my pilot coleto pen with four barrels so I can have different colors of gel ink in them. My most precious one is my pilot prera fountain pen in fine! Pengems are so fancy and it's the kind of pen you want to flash around hahaha! It's very pretty when the light hits the gem, it sparkles!

@ridingbet the gems is just a gem: precious stone! It's a pen with a gem on top. That's why it's called a Pengem, but that's the brand name too.

@toniganzon hahaha! right, and you might not believe me, but i just mispronounced the names of the pen as PENGEMS, like the PENGE + the 'ems'. now, i knew that it is PEN- GEMS. (the gems pronounced as jems, am i correct now?)

If you aren't a planner addict you wouldn't know about these pens. If you like writing with a pen you can check out their website. It's just simply pengems.

I love using different kinds of pens. My favorite is the pilot prera. I don't use pencils though but Japan has the best quality when it comes to pens and pencils. I usually buy from there.

Paper matters a lot to me too. So my planners and journals use a special kind of paper. They're called tomoe river paper from Japan.

Good. That's good to hear. I usually use fountain pens and brush pens as well. You should check out the pengems. Not sure it's available in your country though. But maybe you can get it online.

@SHOHANA They don't have a physical store in the US. They can be bought online. In my country, there are some online shops selling them on Instagram. Maybe some online shops from your country are selling them too.

I like writing on paper with a pretty pen too. I enjoy using gel pens in different colors along with the type of pen you have described. I will have to look for these pens. I typically pick up whatever pen I am attracted to.

Bought plenty of those gel pens (not your expensive brand however) for my young relatives as Christmas gifts. The primary kids love them. Some high school kids here seem to grow out of it lately.

Who would steal it? It's just a pen. I more other expensive pens but I've lost none. I'm planning to buy a fountain pen with a gold nib. It's not that expensive, it costs Php5,500 only.
