How to use

Select colours directly from the paper box and apply with light, even strokes for best pastel effects. Layer colours gradually to build depth and blend tones using a blending stump, tortillon or a light finger for soft transitions. Sharpen with a standard pencil sharpener designed for coloured pencils to maintain a fine point without damaging the core.

Usage recommendations

Store the pencils in the paper box in a dry place away from direct sunlight. For improved blending, use heavier paper with a slight tooth. Replace the sharpener regularly to avoid breakage of pencil cores.
