We currently have three 24 piece pencil sets, two 12 piece sets, one 48 piece set, and with this new set we decided to go with 36 pieces. All these 180 colours are unique and we have no duplicates. Each set compliments the next set. What’s the process like for creating a new set of pencils? How long does it usually take from conception of the idea to selling the products? Given all that, it's understandable that the price isn't as high as professional brands. If there's just the couple that are broken, I would still say they're good value. They're better than cheap stationary brands, but don't have the lightfast guarantee you get with pricier options. Wether there are better quality pencils out there at this price, I don't know, depends how many others are broken I guess. But those are my two big hang ups. SAFE&NON-TOXIC- These coloring pencils are Original Wooden Pencils. Made of pollution-free material, which is safe for your health. Color pencils for adult coloring Not only for adults but also for children Color pencils with Bright colors and smooth to use. After umpteen attempts at creating the color wheel and sorting the colors to my liking, I finally found a prototype of the color wheel that I was satisfied with.

HIGHLY PIGMENTED & EASY BLEND- Our professional colouring pencils have soft, break-resistant cores. It was made from high-quality pigments that won't fade over time. The colouring pencils set with strong adhesion, and natural overlapping colour are Perfect for Drawing, Shading, Adult Colouring Books, Blending, Printing, Highlighting, and Layering. depending on what you like to color, you may find that the pencils do not offer the variety of colors in the tones that you prefer when compared to artist brandsMany people that were colouring had numerous conditions such as anxiety, depression, chronic pain, etc. This hobby took their minds off their relevant issues, and they enjoyed a few hours of relief. SUPERIOR QUALITY-The portable colored pencil set with individual slots to the better arrangement of 72 pencils for you. The sturdy pencil lead is made of high-quality material. These high-quality materials can be used by all, whether you are an artist or a student. The Skin range features a set of Light Skin and Dark Skin pencils to give you a limitless range of skin tone options. We couldn’t find any information related to lightfastness. Some long-term testing would need to be conducted to get a better idea of this. The color that we saw seemed to be pretty intense and we wouldn’t be surprised if it lasted for many years but until testing was performed, we wouldn’t be able to guarantee that with absolute certainty. Usability and Durability – 4/5

Finally, the Monarch pencil set was released in 2020, and was their most recent palette before this month’s release. I'm a fine artist with a degree and experience with a wide range of art materials and brands. Avoided colouring pencils because I find them too hard for my arthritic hands, usually. Dabbled with a few brands, but generally too hard for me. I wanted better quality than kids pencils but wasn't up for the price tag of polychromos... so I bought these. The pencils are not water-soluble but you can use water to soften the pencil strokes. They do not blend though like true watercolor pencils

Customer reviews

We have an exclusive behind the scenes glimpse at this amazing new pencil set, but before we get to that, what do we already know about these mysterious pencils? Now that we have discussed the sets and their available colors, let’s elaborate on how well these pencils produce color.

The barrel is hexagonal instead of round. This is a personal preference, but we tend to like hexagonal barrels more than round as they are easier for us to hold.

The performance of these pencils is quite capable for their target audience. The color output is good and the blending between various colors is serviceable as well. We didn’t experience much wax bloom until you start heavily layering. I was amazed at what I was watching and was mesmerised by the fantastic pictures that colourists were producing –but the thing that really caught my attention was the health benefits this pastime was giving to the consumers. I've had mine just over a week and I've used them most days. I use a pro grade sharpener and I'm careful how I sharpen them. But a few of them I'm finding are broken quite badly down the barrel. I've had two pencils where I've sharpened half the pencil away before realising and giving up. With the wax content, there's tip in the questions section re: heating them and letting them cool which could work, in theory. Now on to durability. These pencils were about average when trying to sharpen. The wax core is relatively hard to it may want to chip when you are sharpening it to a fine point. So if you are someone that likes to have an extremely fine point, we recommend using a manual sharpener that is designed for colored pencils and taking your time while sharpening.

My company Medihealth 1 was predominantly set up to sell feminine personal care products. You might well ask, “How did a healthcare company get involved with coloured pencils?” It started one evening when I was watching TV and my attention was drawn to a documentary on adult colouring, a fad that I had never heard of, and was very big globally. The wax that is used is of nice quality. When you push the pencil down, the application is quite smooth. We didn’t experience any of the “chunks” that you may have in some of the lower-end pencils on the market. That being said, this isn’t the buttery feel you will see with premium wax pencils or many of the oil pencils on the market. it may work out cheaper (depending on sales and specials) to buy a complete set of another brand rather than by set by setThe next set is called the Scorpion Edition set. Almost as if they heard our complaint about the first set, the second set focuses more on “earthy” colors. Also available in 24 pencils, the Scorpion set expands on the greens by adding multiple new shades including “Grub Green”, “Irish Green”, and “Olive Green”, to name a few. It also adds to the already relatively large repertoire of yellows from the first set and expands on a few more browns and skin tones. The Monarch and Skin Tone colored pencils have the same ebony barrel color but a colored end cap. The end cap is similar to the pigment of the pencil but not exactly the same The price per pencil is comfortably in the mid-price range. And considering all of the above, this is a very reasonable asking price.
