This is definitely a children's product. And when I ordered it...I knew that and expected it. The reason I ordered this set, even tho I already own two other brands of children's oil pastels was to add to my range of colors available. I'm trying to get into painting with what are called soft oil pastels. And yes, they are significantly more expensive. The whole purpose of oil pastels is to have use of vivid and vibrant colors that a person can blend together on the page. There are hard and soft pastels. Children's oil pastels are usually the hard pastels as they have more binders that helps resist breakage. An oil pastel in reality is a piece of pigment held together with binders such wax. And as I understand it the harder the pastel stick the less pigment that is found in the stick. Professional pastel artists many times use a combination of hard and mostly soft pastels and in addition pastel pencils for their paintings and drawings. Crayola is not on the list of a professional artists "hard pastel". Way too much binding. There are more expensive and better hard pastels that work much better with the blending of colors than brands like Crayola or Pentel or Cray-Pas. Don't get me wrong...these oil pastels are not bad products for children, but for anyone that is wanting to learn basic blending of colors...they will have to spend a bit more money and purchase some basic colors of soft pastels. The pros of brands like Crayola is the extreme vivid and bright colors you can get from an oil pastel verses a crayon. This to me was very addicting...even as an adult...when introduced to probably the cheapest brand of oils pastels for young students. This is why I am recommending this product...but I recommend it to children aged 4 to 6. Old enough not to eat the product but young enough to just be using them for coloring. Which in my opinion is an excellent use. Of all the cheaper brands, Crayola has performed the best that's why I give it five stars. And for the price...it is an excellent value. It met my expectations for the purpose of my purchase. And I hope that parents will introduce their children to this media via Crayola Oil Pastels. Once a child sees the bright colors...they won't want anything else. Enjoy the colors!
It's one of the best brand I used so far
Ordered the items. And they came on time. I will definitely use them again
I have used the since I was little. All I can say is once again, crayola, you have MASTERED this medium! It is very cheaply priced but the quality is great. I have used multiple different brands but I have always stuck with the Crayola brand for oil pastels. They go on very nice and are very fun to work with, especially with kids. A life hack I found was that if you put a dark color over lots of bright and funky colors and then scratch off little designs with a screw-driver or a toothpick it creates a fun design. I recommend this product. You will love it and so will the kids.
I love these oil pastels!! The quality of the product is excellent as to be expected with Crayola and the ease of use, vibrant color, combined with superb blending ability all help me love my purchase!!
it's really good and smooth, great for people who want to try it out for the first time, it just makes a really big mess, so watch out for that
Sold by Walmart but not a walmart product. The insert the crayons came in doesnt fit the crayon box. the crayons themself looked used. Horrible purchase.
The shipping cost more than the product. They came all jumbled up and rubbed off on each other which means the colors are not true. Forced to buy online because not available in my area but required by our art teacher.
Wish I would have read the other reviews. Thought I was buying from Walmart. Shipping was horrible. The set arrived a mess. Packed horribly for shipping.
The product came bend up crayons everywhere and not good handled fragile should've been on it one broke tip came off and missing it's paper the tips all have the others color in it as well inside is dirty pigment everywhere
