[1000 PCS] Transparent Sticky Notes, 6 Sizes Clear Sticky Notes Pads, Waterproof Self-Adhesive Translucent Sticky Notes for Annotating Books, See Through Sticky Notes for School & Office

if you’re using these for notes in a textbook, since they are a slightly slick material i highly recommend the sharpie ultra fine point permanent markers!! as a leftie they have the least amount of smudge when i’m writing and the color options from sharpie are great, but they are more transparent than i thought, and you can fit a lot on even the smaller size pads! they are a little thin, so don’t expect to use them as a tab and placeholder for a book because they will crinkle a little, but other than that they work great and have a lot of size options!

The product was thick as needed ,and did not affect my writing. It can adhere to surfaces as needed.

Easy to write on. I used a gel pen & could see the page underneath easily, in order to trace. My gel pen dried fast on the surface / no smudging. Sticks easily & restocks several times before losing stickiness.

Writes well but I’d use only pencil or pens that are not water-based. Not shown in the photos I included, but Sharpie (alcohol based marker) does not show up well and is extremely streaky. It is pretty transparent, it’s similar to tracing paper. Though they are more sturdy, being made of plastic and not extremely thin paper. Bad idea to write directly onto the pad, as the sheets up to about 5 pages (sheets?) afterwards have noticeable imprints from any previous writing. Even with pens with receptive inks they will take ~30 secs to dry and not smudge. I recommend using pencil, although the grey graphite does not “pop” the same way as a black ink pen does. Probably best to use a pencil if you are a lefty OR just tend to smudge ink easily. These are cool but I think they are VERY dependent on needed application on how much you’d enjoy them. I think the best way you could use these for is if you wanted to trace a diagram in a textbook you can’t highlight/mark OR you want to add sparse amounts of text on a textbook and you don’t want to mark it directly. Otherwise, just STICK to traditional marking/highlighting.

Exactly as described. Great for school and book notation, but also great for art and crafts. Or games like dungones and dragons. Its very transparent. Has a gentle stickiness and barely has any opacity so it does not skew colors.

I borrowed some textbooks from a friend and wanted to be able to write in them temporarily. These allow me to do that! I chose this set because it has different sizes including larger sticky notes. I primarily use the Pilot Frixion erasable pens and the pens write AND erase easily on these. Downside is, because they are clear, they have a bit of a sheen and plastic-feel so pens (at least my erasable ones) do not dry down very fast and therefore smudge easily. The transparency is not completely clear but it does not hinder reading the textbook page underneath whatsoever. Overall, would recommend, just maybe use pens that dry fast so is doesn't smear.

They are great to write on and let you see through the sticky note, but no amount of drying keeps them from making a mark on the other side of the page as soon as you close the book or turn the page. See photo.

Funny story, I actually used these Transparent Clear Sticky Notes Pads to cheat once during a test—just a one-time thing, I promise! I wrote down all of my notes and answers and stuck them on my computer screen. They worked perfectly, and I was able to keep everything in place without it falling off. While I’m out of school now and won’t be using them that way (learning to rely more on my studying and discipline), these sticky notes are fantastic. They’re waterproof, self-adhesive, and stay put exactly where you need them. I’d definitely use them again for organization or just quick notes. Highly recommend!
