Provided is an assembly for a nail pen comprising: a) a nib made from a material that is configured to allow for movement of varnish from inside of the nail pen to the nib, and from the nib to a nail; b) a guide made from a material that is non-absorbent to the varnish, the guide extending below a surface of the nib that is configured to apply varnish to the nail; wherein a user applies a strip of the varnish to a distal portion of the nail by holding the guide against an edge of the nail and moving the nail pen along the distal portion of the nail so that the surface of the nib holding the varnish contacts the distal portion of the nail to apply varnish to the nail.

A writing instrument may include an upper pen barrel rotatably connected to a lower pen barrel. A spool valve and fluid reservoirs may be housed in the upper pen barrel. A writing tip secured to the lower pen barrel may be in selective fluid communication with the fluid reservoirs. The upper pen barrel may be rotatable relative to the lower pen barrel of the writing instrument.

An agitatable coloring utensil is an apparatus that spins the tip of a drawing, coloring, or writing utensil as the user is using the drawing, coloring, or writing utensil. The apparatus includes a tubular body, a marking tip, a motor, a portable power source, and at least one user control. The tubular body is the structural housing for the other component of the apparatus and allows the user to have a firm grasp of the apparatus while using the apparatus to write or draw. The motor is used to drive the rotation of the marking tip. The portable power source is used to electrically power the motor and allows the apparatus to be easily transportable by the user. The user control allows the user to either activate, deactivate, or adjust the rotation of the marking tip.

Devices have a flexible housing with an inside chamber having a closed and open end. A first chemiluminescent fluid is disposed in a breakable container in the chamber, and a second chemiluminescent fluid is in the chamber. A tip assembly is attached to the housing and includes a nib movably disposed in the body, and a filter element may be positioned within the body to prevent passage of broken particles from the container to the nib tip. A resilient element is used to impose an outward biasing force on the nib. A porous material is disposed over an outer surface of the nib tip and securely held in place. The device is activated for use by bending the housing to break the container causing the first and second chemiluminescent fluids to mix and react, providing a chemiluminescent solution that flows to the tip assembly for dispensing onto a desired surface.

The method of present disclosure relates to a writing apparatus for dispensing writing fluid on a writing surface. The writing apparatus comprises a sensor, containers for storing one or more mixing elements, a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The writing apparatus compares the characteristics with predefined characteristics to determine quality of the writing surface. Further, the writing apparatus also determines a quality of the writing fluid suited for the writing surface. Based on the quality of the writing surface and the writing fluid, the writing apparatus modifies at least one property of the writing fluid before dispensing the writing fluid on the writing surface. For modifying the property, the one or more mixing elements are added into the writing fluid. Once the writing fluid is modified, the writing apparatus dispense the writing fluid on the writing surface.
