Arrived Leaking

This package arrived cello wrapped so I didn't realize until I opened it that everything was covered in the potting medium (glue) that came with the paint. What a mess it was. The blue paint is also leaking. I do NOT recommend this product. The paint itself was so thick that it was unsuitable for rock paintings. When executing a mandala, each point has a vertex. Low quality. I've included photos of the mess I unpacked.

Pros
  • Also includes a bonus training booklet with tips and tricks. Ideal for beginners interested in transitioning to professional methods.
Cons
  • alt

Incredibly bad packaging. A mess on the box and on my desk.

I like this brand but the packaging annoys me VERY. All the vials were sealed with the plastic wrap and you cannot remove them from the plastic without opening the vials and getting what little is in the wrapper. Also, the mixed slime is bottled so it's only half full and all my bottles stick. I am very upset with the mess I have on my hands and on the table. I recommend buying the bottles separately and not in a "set". As I said,

Pros
  • Slow Dry Mixing Medium is a unique formulation that increases drying time by up to 40 percent when mixing with acrylics. It's lightweight, non-toxic, and dries to a waterproof, non-yellowing finish.
Cons
  • Not bad but...

Handle with care when opening.

I would give this product 5 stars except the booklet is practically useless and the paint protectant has eaten away the adhesive on its seal and has leaked. The leak was insufficient to attempt a return and a minimal amount of product was lost. However, it leaked in transit, so I'm going to transfer it from a plastic container to a glass jar. The color was exactly what I expected from Liquitex. If you want brown ones, buy some. It is very difficult to mix brown with these primary colors without

Pros
  • Preserves brush tips and strokes; perfect for learning color theory and color mixing. Ideal for beginners or experts

  • I don't remember
