Faber-Castell Creative Studio Oil Pastel Crayons - Assorted Colors, Set of 36

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very nice set of oil pastels. The glide easily on the paper and are super easy to blend. I loved working with these. The packing is okay but idk if it should be used permanently, definitely worth the money. I also live the variety of colors to choose from make picking colors so much easier!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this Faber-Castell Oil Pastels Set of 36 as a complimentary sample through Influenster, and it has been such a great addition to my 4-year-old daughter's daily art time. Even though we didn't purchase it, I'm genuinely impressed with the quality and how well it works for young kids. The first thing I noticed is how smooth and creamy the pastels feel. The colors go onto the paper effortlessly, even with light pressure, which is perfect for little hands. My daughter loves how bright and vibrant the shades are — the set includes a lovely variety of colors that allow her to draw everything from rainbows and animals to her favorite characters. The 36-color range is big enough to feel exciting but not too overwhelming for a younger child. One of the best parts is how durable the pastels are. Many oil pastels tend to break easily, especially when used by small kids, but these have held up really well with daily use. They don't crumble, and they keep their shape even when my daughter presses a bit harder than she should. I also appreciate how easy they are to clean. A quick wash removes most of the color from her hands, and the pastels don't stain the table or leave oily residue everywhere. As a parent, that's a huge plus. The blending ability is another highlight. She's starting to experiment with mixing colors, and these pastels make it simple — the texture is soft enough to blend yet firm enough to stay controlled and not create a huge mess. It has really encouraged her creativity and confidence. Overall, receiving this set through Influenster has been a wonderful surprise. It's high-quality, kid-friendly, and perfect for everyday drawing sessions. I would absolutely recommend it to other parents looking for art supplies that are safe, vibrant, and durable for young children.
