    Small set of basic colours but enough in the box to mix and make other colours easily. Creamy texture and blend well. A beautiful effect even without adding water. Overall effect with water is creamy watercolour. So far no crumbles.

    Ive had this set for about 8 months. I think of them as a bit of a luxury because they are, after all, crayons, but the watercolor application of them is magical to a novice like myself. I like that they can be sharpened to a point for fine coloring, then wet with a paint brush to use either as watercolor paint itself or directly on the paper turning it to a creamy, richly colored substance that is lovely to use. Someday Ill treat myself to the next bigger size of these high quality crayons.

    Love, love love these! One of the students in my art class brought a set of these in and after seeing my teachers delight I just had to buy a set to try. You can draw and color with them like regular crayons but then you take a damp/wet paintbrush and turn your picture in to a painting ~ or you can draw something on top of your panting; then wet a brush and gently go over whatever you draw and it becomes part of the picture! Beautiful colors that you can control the intensity of. After seeing how beautiful the colors were I am sorry I didnt invest in the larger set!

    I am not an artist, but bought these for a friend who is. We used them for a project with a group of non-artists to make bookmarks and everyone wanted to buy a set. Very fun to use and the colors were beautiful on our black background. Now I too want a set of my own.

    These soluble crayons go on smoothly and dissolve like butter when water is applied, without leaving undissolved stray marks. Loving every moment of this!

    I absolutely love these crayons. The color they add is intense and beautiful. I add them to watercolor or just use them alone, with or without water. These are fabulous if you love bright, intense color in your art!

    I bought these after seeing them on Pinterest to draw on myself for music festivals and everyday life. All you have to do is dip them in water and then draw on your skin and the colors show up vibrantly! They also draw very well on paper with or without water. This product is amazing. But if you sweat at all it comes off your skin and starts looking pretty ratchet. I havent figured out how to make it stay
