## Description

Brand New

Review: Get them while they’re hot! - I purchased a set on a whim because it is so inexpensive. I love them. They are creamy, affordable, and the colors are fabulous. I am over 70 with arthritic hands and I can blend them with ease. They do seem to cure overnight and dry out a bit. . After one day, I ordered the 72 piece set. That’s how much I like them. This set is fine for a beginner. They give the feel of working in pastels or oils with minimal cleanup, no toxicity or odors.. Set up requires opening the box and getting a damp paper towel and some Q tips. Blick’s website rates them as nontoxic. Light fastness is poor. You can fix this by framing with UV protective glass, should you produce a masterpiece. You will run out of white quickly. Order this from Jerry’s Artarama. Or just get a different brand. If you are a beginner you will enjoy using 2 or 3 colors in one spot and possibly blending. . Certainly worth $20. Far more expensive at Jerry’s. I’m assuming this has to do with tariffs, so grab these.
Review: The real oil pastel experience without the price tag - First of all I'll say I'm happy with these pastels. I am not tremendously experienced in oil pastels but I've been experimenting recently with a lot of old craft items including a big mixed media set. I quite enjoyed the oil pastels but wanted to try something a little better without too big of an investment. These fit the bill and give me the oil pastel experience I've been lead to believe I should expect. Starting with the physical aspects, the packaging seems robust enough though the foam holding them down is a little thin. I haven't felt especially compelled to put them in a nicer box which says that (for me) they are acceptable. Despite the thin foam they came to me intact. I have previously only draw with some very cheap oil pastels (which I'll compare later) but I did try several brands that a store had in open stock. I found these to be comparably soft to the Sennelier but the feel a little more "greasy" when being applied vs the Sennelier which I'd describe as "creamy". They come in a plain cylinder form without the Sennelier bullet points (which suits me fine) but that's an obvious difference. I found that they didn't crumble much (the Cray-pas specialist crumbled more). Overall I'd say they stand up well to the competition. Next I'd like to talk about painting and blendability. I tried these out on watercolour paper, mixed media paper and pastel paper. On all 3 the softness allows them to apply readily in fairly thick layers. They smooth on the page easily with a finger, cloth or stump. They can be layered over one another but attempting to layer then blend can be tricky: it seems better to simply draw the colours in from their respective sides getting gradually thinner toward one another then smooth out perpendicular to the gradient. They worked nicely for sgraffito and all general oil pastel techniques. The colours are definitely bold but there are a few areas where I felt they lacked, for example I couldn't find a really strong primary red. Having said that I was not disappointed and doubt this will hold me back. As for value I'd like to compare to the cheap set I tried out before. They were a very cheap set of 36 from a retail store. A little measurement tells me that these are about 2x the volume (i.e. provide 2x the materlal). Accounting for that these are 2x the price per volume (compared to an absolute bottom of the line set) and about 1/4 the price of Senellier. Compared to these the cheap set I had previously feel terrible, waxy and crumbly in application with weak colours and hard to blend: these are definitely much better value. Compared to the Sennelier these are definitely not quite as pigmented or smooth or shaped as elegantly but to a beginner I doubt the difference would be that noticeable: for a beginner/student these are probably better value. Overall I'm very happy with the way these work. I definitely no longer feel I'm being limited by the media so I can work on improving my skills. If you are looking for an introduction to oil pastels I would say you won't go too far wrong with this set.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do these oil pastels blend well? Do they require fixative?**
A: I used them they are creamy not chunky and beautiful to blend even with the finger..i used oil and acrylic fixative for the painting i did with oil pastel..it worked very well but i couldn't stand the smell and i got sick..next day i tried sealing the painting with white glue and it worked like charm ..so i think you don't have to worry about how to seal it you can even use PVA glue or oxy resin or oil pastel fixative if that's ok

**Q: where made please?**
A: YOUR GUESS IS AS GOOD AS MINE.  A BIG CLUE IS THE PASTELS ARE MADE WITH KAOLIN CLAY.,,THERE ARE NOT TOO MANY BIG KAOLI.N DEPOSITS IN THE WORLD.. SEARCH FOR KAOLIN DEPOSITS WORLD -WIDE AND GO FROM THERE.  KAOLIN MAKES THE FINEST DINING CHINAWARE.  THINK MY REALLY GOOD CHINA WAS MADE IN JAPAN...SORRY I CANNOT BE SPECIFIC...OH, MUNGYO US DISTRIBUTED OUT OF DENVER, COL...MIGHT SEARCH THERE ALSO...GOOD LUCK

**Q: can you use them in adult coloring books and grayscale?**
A: Oil pastels, depending on the oils used as binders, either dry very slowly (a year to fully cure) or never dry at all. If you don't plan to preserve your pages, then I think you may enjoy using them, but the pages will smear if they come into contact with other pages, your hand, etc.

**Q: When using these as background in a coloring book is a fixative needed?**
A: I've never used in a coloring book, but the colors can smear. For my paintings, I always use a fixative. Better safe than sorry. By the way, I really like these oil pastels. Not as soft as Sennilier, but not bad. They're still a professional grade pastel. They're also more affordable. Hope this helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ BEST Bang for Your Buck - Quality & Variety of Rich Colors!!
*by J***S on May 15, 2025*

An EXCELLENT set of pastels, and especially so for the price!! If you purchase, you will be extremely happy with the variety and intensity of colors, as well as the variety within each hue. For example, the set includes SEVEN shades of Blue and SIX shades of red. All of them have fantastic pigmentation, are very soft and creamy, and lay down smoothly and easily. For the price I paid, I was very surprised and elated over the quality and variety of beautiful colors. I highly recommend these - you, too will be very happy and pleased with your purchase!!
