Review on 🎨 General Pencil 94012ABP Multi Pastel Compressed Chalk Sticks, 12-Pack: Vibrant Colors for Artistic Creations! by Kelly Caballes

Let me start first, I'm a fan of general products, but these pastel colors are not very good. As other people have pointed out these are very hard pastels and it takes a lot of effort to apply the material to the paper. When I bought these pastels I was looking at the color palette, skin tones and all that. I don't think they go well together. When I try to blend them, they leave marks where they were originally applied. As someone who has been making art for 23 years I would not give these pastels to any other artist or any future artist (to me that would be an excuse for an aspiring aspiring artist). I compared these pastels to Prismacolor Nu-Pastel. So when buying a pastel don't go cheap, find someone worthwhile. I haven't used them since the day I tested them on paper. I would recommend spending a little more on Nu-Pastels Prismacolor, Mungyo pastels, or even Jack Richeson pastels. I made a little comparison between these pastels and Nu-Pastels Prismacolor. Notice the difference in pigments and also note that general pastels are difficult to apply to paper while Prismacolor requires some pressure to get a good application to paper.
