Review on πŸ–οΈ Prismacolor Col-Erase Assorted Colors Erasable Colored Pencils, 12-Pack (20516) by Tara Ford

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I don't recommend beginners for this as I am and it was.

I received these a few days ago and at first I was very happy that I finally got them. Until I tried to sharpen them. These pins are very thick and the LED keeps breaking inside. The small lead bits got stuck in my sharpener to the point that I needed another tool to get the lead out. I tried several other pencils in the box and different sharpeners and the result was the same. The pencil lead broke in the sharpener. This is my first time drawing with colored pencils and I had no idea how thick they are. I really wanted to try this, but I won't buy it again after that. I don't recommend newbies for what I am and it was a waste of money for me. Maybe my batch was poorly done, but it doesn't justify the fact that all 12 pencils don't even sharpen. I can't even test them for a full review as the line just broke. I am very disappointed in this product and will look for other cheaper products. It seems that out of 12 pencils at least one is sharpened.

Pros
  • Intensely rich pigments glide on smoothly and wash off easily
Cons
  • Not as thick as other shades

They are good and are expected to be. Consider cheaper sets if you cant afford these.
