- A gel pen is a type of writing instrument that uses gel-based ink, which is thicker and more opaque than regular ballpoint or rollerball ink. This ink is water-based and often contains pigments, allowing for smooth, consistent writing and vibrant colors. Gel pens are popular for their ability to write on dark or glossy surfaces and are commonly used for note-taking, artwork, journaling, and crafts.
