Caran dAche Classic Neocolor II Water-Soluble Pastels, 15 Colors

Im in love with these. Once you learn how to use them on different paper they are a breeze to use. The only complaint i have is in the 84 watersoluble set i bought, the gold one came as a Neo I instead of the watersoluble Neo II.

Very happy. really love this larger set with a wide variety of color. So easy to work with and very smooth. I cant stop playing with them :)

I LOVE these water color crayons! Intense and great range of colors to chose from. I wish I had discovered them years ago!

My 1st & 2nd grade students really enjoy using these in art.

I love thesecrayons. They are smooth and have great pigment. I love to draw outlines of objects and add water to create watercolor effects. The colors are so yummy too. Igor a sample of neocolor fluorescent crayons (not waretcolor) and loved adding some accents and additional color. Fun to use and cant wait to do some Markmaking in my journal

best face painting prodcut ever. caran dache is fabulous. vivid colors and luxurious to work with.. i can turn a 3year old into a fierce pirate before they have time to even think about it and it washes off perfectly.....the bomb

There were plenty of reviews and even a video saying that you only get half the colors, but I could see in the video review that the woman was NOT pulling up the metal tray. She just grabbed the black plastic part and said see no more... That little black tray is not strong enough to support all the pastels, so there is a nice metal tray to pull them up with. I thought that might be the case and it is. I have to admit its not all that obvious. Often there will be a pull ribbon or something on a tray with a second layer, but once you know its all good. These are so worth it, they have rich creamy colors, layer well, and are a bunch of fun to use.

Love love love. Rich deep amazing color

I love these. I love these so much. They’re so enjoyable. They’re so versatile. I love how intense the colors get when you add water. Perfect for watercolor illustrations.

Not sure where I heard about this product, maybe Quilting Arts Magazine. These water soluable crayons are easy and fun to use. They solved my resistance to purchasing another round of dyes for cotton on my small art quilts. These crayons work similarly to water colors. Ive experimented by applying/rubbing to dry and damp fabric. Not sure if there is much difference in the end result though they transfer to damp fabric much easier. I imagine these colors will work a little differently with each type of fiber, fabric and weave. Apply the color to the fabric from the crayon stick, mixing colors side by side and over one another if you please. Then add water with your brush of choice (I like a foam brush best so far) or spritz to dampen all first. Each stick/color carries its color differently. I found some of the lighter colors to be more dense than the darker colors. So, if it makes a difference to your project Id suggested testing each color stick for its covering qualities first. Hang or lay flat to dry to see if you applied enough color. Reapply if necessary. A good pressing sets the colors to the fabric.
