Smile blending pens

does anyone prefer a specific blending pen? I saw a dove pen with replacement nibs. Any thoughts?
Thanks Lori :confused:

I got some blender pens at Joann.com, they are the TOMBO ones.

Here is the link

The price is right too, it's only $ 2.79 per pen.

I think that the Dove blenders are definately better because you can replace the tips and refill the fluid. You know how when you use a marker alot the tips gets soft and mushy? when that happens you can simply pull it out and put another one in.

I have used the dove refill fluid in my tombow blenders also - and it wil "re-juice" them but if the tip is soft on them there is no replacing it. SO it makes you blender pen a pen for life - the others are disposable.

They all do the same thing as far as blending goes and I do not think any blender better than the next.

I've used Blender pens from SU, Tombow and Dove. I like them all.

But the dove blender pen you may purchase extra tips. And as far as I know you can not with the other one.
