Everything that makes the Giotto Turbo range such a reliable choice for children's creative work — the durable pressure-resistant tip, the washable water-based ink, the ventilated safety cap — combined with glitter ink that adds a genuine sparkle to every mark. The Turbo Glitter pens are the natural companion to the standard Turbo Color range, adding shimmer and excitement to cards, drawings, colouring, journalling, and any project where a little glitter makes things considerably more interesting.
The ink is water-based and carries fine glitter particles in suspension, delivering a consistent, sparkling line with the same reliable flow and coverage as the standard Turbo Color pens. The 2.8mm fibre tip is pressure-resistant and anti-retractable — it holds its point under normal use and doesn't sink back into the barrel when pressed — and is the same size as the Turbo Color tip, making the two ranges a natural pairing for mixed work. The ventilated, choke-proof caps are safe for children aged 3 and above. Ink washes from skin with soap and warm water and from most fabrics on a standard 40°C machine wash.
The pack of 8 contains Red, Yellow, Blue, Turquoise, Orange, Brown, Purple, and Black — a well-rounded selection of vivid glitter colours covering the core creative palette. Made in Italy by Giotto, a brand with a history in children's art materials stretching back to 1920.
What colours are included in the pack? Red, Yellow, Blue, Turquoise, Orange, Brown, Purple, and Black — eight glitter colours in total.
Are they washable? Yes. The water-based glitter ink washes from skin with soap and warm water and from most fabrics on a 40°C machine wash programme. As with all felt tip inks, prompt washing gives the best results.
Are they safe for children? Yes — the caps are ventilated and choke-proof, meeting European safety standards. Suitable for children aged 3 and over. The ink is water-based and non-toxic.
Can they be used alongside Giotto Turbo Color pens? Yes — the tip size is identical at 2.8mm, making the Turbo Glitter and Turbo Color ranges a natural pairing for mixed work where both solid colour and glitter effects are wanted in the same piece.
What surfaces do they work on? They are designed for use on paper and card. For best results use on standard cartridge or colouring paper — very absorbent surfaces may cause slight bleeding.
