Default liquid glue VS. 2 way glue pen?

Hello fellow SCSers!
Looking for expert opinions from those of you who use these glues... what's the difference? :?

liquid glue is $3.95
2 way glue pen is $2.95

TIA

Liquid glue is more crystal effect-y - thicker & slower to dry. Has two ends. Good stuff. Thanks, Beverly (txgrammy) for introducing it to us!

Two-way glue is okay, but tends to not stick as well for me when doing paper to paper. But it is WONDERFUL for glitter!

Just my .02, quickie opinion.

I use liquid glue on items such as note pad covers, post-it covers etc., in places where there there will be more stress on the project pieces. Liquid glue dries clear so even if a little bit runs I can quickly rub it off and there is no evidence of a mistake. I only use the two-way glue stick for glitter.

I only use 2-way glue for glitter. I had originally purchased it for gluing my cards together because the my demo at the time recommended it. All of my cards made with it fell apart and some of them were ones that I had sold to people!

I've never used liquid glue...but I'm glad you asked the question because I had wondered also.

Default glue

I, too, made cards and scrapbook pages using the two way glue in the blue pen. Everything fell apart. I only use it now for reposition glue, like for templates or on the back of my dd's paperdoll clothes.
