Maped Pastel Colouring Pencils (Pack of 12), multicolor, 832069

I should have read the reviews properly. They were mostly for a different item. I bought these because granddaughter wanted glitter pens but there is hardly any glitter in the ink. You really have to look to see it. On the plus side the colours are very strong but I would not have bought them had I known about the lack of glitter.

I use these with my adult colouring book, which is a great relaxing tool. I wanted a range of different colours, but not too many pencils to roll off the table! This was a great compromise for me and the colours are great! They give a good strong colour and were ideal for the purpose!If you found my review helpful, please do click the button! I would much appreciate your feedback :)

I like this set, I'd bought some cheaper ones from a pounshop for my 4 year old but you could hardly see the lighter colours, so thought I'd try these, she doesn't have to press on hard and the colours are nice and vivid even the yellow/light green etc you can see clearly, they draw nicely and cleanly and my little girl is enjoying using them for her drawings

As ordinary felt tips for children, these are lovely and brightly coloured and easy to hold. Just no glitter that I can see. Very disappointing.

I have recently taken up the new craze of adult colouring books and wanted to get some decent coloured pencils to use in them. I am currently colouring in the Secret Garden book by Johanna Basford (see attached pics created with these pencils) and these pencils are excellent for it they product a decent amount of colour without having to press too hard and they layer quite nicely although maybe a little more difficult for blending but on the whole I am really pleased and for the price can't complain at all. I would definately recommend this product

The pens are really just coloured felt tip pens, however, I bought them for party bags thinking they were something a bit more special. Sadly I cannot see the glitter in the ink. After the drawing on the paper was left to dry I re-examined the ink and there is a very vague suggestion of a tiny bit of glitter when I held it under a strong light and tilted the paper. Not what I was after....

This is the second one of these I have bought as I think they are a great way to store felt tips, they should make them for crayons and pencils too! They are tidy and easy to put away, display and use. Also very good for when traveling or to take on holiday with you.The holder is some sort of rubber material so it doesn't slide on the table and for the flexibility of the base. It also opens the felt tips for hands to grab them and if you flip the bottom you can stand them up on your desk.My daughters first batch though, the felt tips didn't last that long but she did keep leaving them out to dry, but I shall see how well and long this second batch last for.Only concern is I am not sure if all the parts are recyclable it doesn't state on the packaging. I definitely would recommend these for easy use as it keeps them all together and easy to tidy away and store.

Ordered because of the design and triangular grip. Looks nice, but not very comfortable holding while color- pencils are very thin and slipery for holding which my hand makes feel tired just in seconds after trying each colour. No way child can use at school without extra grip, so will stay only for home use. Good surprise that this set includes a rare colour- carmine-red! Erasers works well.
