I've used these highlighters for both school and work for decades and they don't disappoint. They come in a variety of neon colours and they last for quite some time. The caps fit tightly, which keeps them from drying out prematurely. I use them mainly for note taking, to-do lists, accenting important dates on my calendar, even artwork. They're also very affordable and can be found individually or in packs of multiple colours. I do, however have to say that the shades are more of a muted tone of neon and not as bright as some other brands on the market. Still very good though for making important notes stand out.
