Colour Pencil Review: Amazon Basics Pencils | Cave Road-test

[@JessicaSzempruch]

I can attest that these pencils are hardy indeed. My young nieces color with them all the time, and not one has broken. If a pencil can pass the “kid test” then it’s definitely durable. 😂

I have these in Australia and they are good, love your Scottish accent 😊😊😊

Good review! Good information! Love the speeded-up swatch page! Made me smile! Thanks for sharing!

Always interesting to see another review of pencils. I'm not in the market for coloured pencils right now, but if someone was looking for a nice set, I'd be able to recommend these now ☺️ as starter pencils. But my go to pencils are also the Polychromos.
Fun fact: the cheaper Faber-Castell gold and silver pencils are way better than the Polychromos ones. Just saying 😇

Beware, it seems that the quality might have dropped. There was some review yesterday on that on youtube. I got mine yesterday and while I am not experienced with colored pencils, it seems that they are quite hard now (compared to my Bic Kids Aquacolors for example) and the layering seems really hard on anything that isn't a dark color or a yellow. Apparently the priced also dropped from 30USD to something below 20?

Muuuum, Gem is enabling me again! (sorry, had to, now I'll watch the video 😂)
I've heard lots of good things about these pencils to be honest, and they're only 15 Euro right now on the German Amazon. I won't buy them because they're not available open stock, which I think is really important. And also, I just have too many pencil sets already in any case 😂Thanks for the review though, Gem. Always good to know about possible recommendations and they are seemingly really great for their price.

I would have liked more tans and lighter browns for skin tones.

I am very tempted to try those 😊

The gold and silver Polychromos are one of the worst pencils ove ever tried 🥲

I know! And it's something that's rarely talked about - like a taboo subject 😂
