WORTH IT! COMPETE WITH FABER --- EASY!

Ok I decided to try this VS. Faber bought again. I have almost all brands of crayons, from the cheapest Crayola to the most expensive CARAN d'ACHE. I was hoping they would be as good as the other polys and they are pretty impressive especially for the price. I've used them side by side with all the other polys and they're really good. They're a little harder than Fabers or Caran, but not by much. They apply paint just as smoothly as the best brands (since these are oils you don't have to worry about wax graying). The pigments are rich too, not as many colors as some of them, but the 72 poly is pretty good. * Oil based colored pencil * Blends and buffs very well with Dewerts, Prismacolor, Caran and Lyra Rembrandt Splender. Also blends well with liquids such as Finesse Colored Pencil Blender, Gamsol and Rubbing Alcohol. * Excellent saturation * Harder core than some other oil pencils, no uneven color. It doesn't take a lot of pressure to get brilliant results. THIS IS A MUST IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS BEAUTY. I only had to pick 3 brands to keep, I would say Prismacolors (there should be another), Koh-l-Noor and Dewerts INKTENSE. Please vote if this was helpful or not. THANK YOU
