Review on 🎨 Artist Grade Water Soluble Colored Pencil Set - U.S. Art Supply, 48 Pieces, 7 Inch Full Sized Pencils by Lori Aguirre

When I opened the box and took the packaging, all the pencils were on the floor. It looked like someone chewed on the corner and ripped open the package. Apparently they tried to attach it with clear tape but it was on the side of the package and not on the damage site. This does not detract from the quality of the pens, but the case is so thin that it is completely unusable even without damage. I just started using pencils. Pens require little pressure to transfer color (compared to other brands of pens) but respond well to shading with a wet brush. There are only two shades of purple and they aren't particularly bright, which I've found across three different brands now. Still searching for the Holy Grail in colored pencils including Prismacolor. In general, the pens disappointed me. My hands ache from trying to give examples. Note the turbidity of the purples and dark blues.
