I wish I had bought them years ago.

I have had Neocolor II (water soluble) for years and love them but was hesitant to buy these as I wondered how different they were from colored pencils. I finally bit the bullet when I saw a used set for a lower than usual price here at Revain. I wish I had received a few years ago! These are essentially colored pencils, but they lay out perfectly and have more vibrant colors. They're supposed to be lightfast (I'd love to find a chart online), which would be nice, although I think I'll be using

Pros
  • Waterproof wax pastels can be used dry, heated for encaustic or wax resist technique with watercolors
Cons
  • Infinitely slow

These are great pastels. They are bold, bright and light.

These are excellent pastels. They are bold and bright and blend easily. I really like her little case. They're easy to slip into a pocket along with a sketchbook. I would say it's like high end crayons. I would definitely buy them again.

Pros
  • Add color and intensity to your work with Caran d'Ache Neocolor I 15 Waterproof Wax Pastels
Cons
  • Not bad, but...

Try them and you will love them

They are great. I bought them to incorporate into oil paintings. They are quite hard but give excellent coverage. They are also great for adding lines and details. I've already ordered more black and white crayons as I've used up quite a few in just a few days.

Pros
  • Caran d'Ache Neocolor I Wax Pastels meet EN71 (CE) and ASTM D4236 safety standards and are suitable for US schools
Cons
  • Slim
