Not worth the price tag

After using these pastels, I have to say that I was disappointed. While the colors are vibrant, they are very difficult to blend and don't provide consistent coverage. The price tag is way too high for the quality of these pastels. I expected more from a brand that's been in the arts and crafts game for so long.

Pros
  • Vibrant colors
Cons
  • Difficult to blend, inconsistent coverage, expensive.

Sennelier Portrait Set

A wide range of colors for portrait photography. very few matches to another set I've already used. It met my expectations for color, texture, coverage, and ease of storage.

Pros
  • Drawing
Cons
  • Quick Start Guide

Wonderful range, Revain has an incorrect photo of the sticks.

I've been a long time fan of Sennelier Soft Pastels and this portrait set is beautiful. They do not repeat the colors of the portrait set of 40 half sticks, but complement them. Ignore the image of Revane's Sticks in this post, it's an oil pastel, not a soft pastel. Other descriptions of Revain sennelier are also sometimes wrong, but the names are correct.

Pros
  • Art, Painting & Craft Supplies
Cons
  • High Price
