Hi everyone! These markers are definitely a 5-star review by me! I was kindly sponsored by this brand, Bianyo, but all opinions are 100% mine! Firstly, these markers had great, portable packaging, and it was very simple yet effective. Next, moving on to the contents, these 72-color pastel alcohol markers came with a bleed proof sheet, a printed swatch card and booklet with information about the markers, a blank swatch card for the person to fill out, and lastly, of course, the markers! I got the brush tip and chisel tip set, and the brush tip works really well and the chisel tip is great for filling in large spaces! The color variety was also great, and even if it didn't match the printed swatch card perfectly, that's what the blanks swatch card was for, and it was very satisfying to fill it out! Overall, these markers are a great buy, and if you're looking for a good set of pastel markers, buy these!! 🫶 Read more
As an art teacher with over fifty years of experience, I find markers to be one of the most practical art materials for students. Our go-to brand has been Bianyo—it gives you professional quality without a sky-high price tag. For years now, Bianyo markers have been the top pick among my students and their parents. The colors are vivid, the ink flows smoothly, the tips hold up well, and they just feel good to use. We started with the 72-color set and were really happy with it. Then when the 180-color set came out, we switched right over—the extra colors let the students create more and enjoy coloring even more. This year, when I saw Bianyo’s new 366-color dual-tip alcohol marker set—with both fine/brush tips and fine/chisel tips—I was truly excited. I got a set right away. The color range is amazing, the shades are thoughtfully arranged, and the markers feel great in hand. We’re now gradually upgrading our students to this 366-color set, and I can already see it sparking even more enthusiasm in their artwork. Our students have created award-winning pieces with Bianyo markers. For example, in the 2024 Doodle for Google competition, one of my students won first place in California and also took top honors nationally in the grades 6–7 category, earning a $5,000 scholarship—and Bianyo markers were part of that creative process. From the perspective of an art educator who has taught thousands of young artists over the years, I believe Bianyo markers are worth investing—whether for a child who loves to draw or for yourself if you enjoy creating art. You can choose based on age and skill level—the 72-color, 180-color, or the full 366-color set. Whichever you pick, Bianyo markers are a solid choice. Read more
The media could not be loaded. Fantastic Alcohol Markers for Artists of All Ages These alcohol markers are perfect for artists of all ages, from beginners to more experienced creators. They write beautifully—smooth and consistent with every stroke—and the colors are bold, vibrant, and don’t fade over time. For the best results, I highly recommend using them with marker-specific paper. It really makes a difference in achieving clean lines, preventing bleed-through, and preserving the vibrancy of the ink. We pair ours with a good quality marker pad, and the results are stunning. My son loves using these markers for his art projects. He says they make his drawings “come to life,” and I couldn’t agree more. The wide color selection gives him plenty of room to be creative, and the smooth blending adds a professional touch to his work. The markers feel durable, the caps are secure, and they’re easy to handle—even for younger artists. Overall, a great value for the quality. I’d definitely recommend these to anyone looking to elevate their art supplies without spending a fortune. Read more
Overall, I like the markers. However, there is only ONE real red marker in the entire 72 pack. The next closest is a red-orange or a red-pink. If you count those, you get three shades of red. But there are 11 different shades of blue, 4 shades of teal, 8 shades of green, 10 of yellow and 9 of grey. I wish there had been just a few more red choices. The markers are also very “wet” which is great when you’re using them, but some of them do tend to get a bit goopy because of that. And so when kids are using them, they can leave stains in unexpected places if the kids set them down on the floor or table without something underneath them. 😬 I do really like them. We’ve had them over a year and none of them have dried out. I’d buy them again. Read more
