Why is my Copic marker dried out?

Our markers are alcohol-based so if you forget to close the cap the alcohol will evaporate and the nib will dry out. Depending on how long the cap was off you may still be able to use the marker. However, if the cotton inside the marker dries out, it will not be usable for a long time.

Do Copic markers fade over time?

From the Copic Website: Q: Will artworks made with Copic fade over time? A. Since we use dye ink, the colors may fade over time when exposed to strong UV light. It also depends on the specific color and the amount of light – some colors may start fading after several hours or days, while some may not change at all.

A dried out pen can become unusable, but dealt with in the right way it won’t be unsalvageable. If the alcohol is gone, the best bet is to use official Copic Marker refill inks to rehydrate the pen.

Which is better Copic Ciao or Sketch?

Sketch is the top-of-the-line option; they are more expensive, but come in every color that Copic offers. Ciao is a cheaper option, but only comes in about half as many colors. There are a few differences between these two types of markers, but luckily none of them have to do with quality.
