you can never have enough pastel colors, they are hard to make with the full saturation pencils and I use them to blend rather than white. I use my red, purple, and blues up all the time. I will have to take a look at this
Yeah there are only so many colors they can make, but they definitely are fun to look at - they are like little wrapped up candies!
Great idea to use these for blending!
Oh Thank You I did not think of that!
@@ColorfullyOptimisticI love pastels but don't want to spend an arm and a leg on a set with standard pencils that don't fit my color pallete. Purples and oranges for sunsets, blues for the sky and the sea, greens for succelents, reds and pinks for flowers and browns for animal fur. While I love lava, umber, vermilion, verdigris, navy, olive, maroon, burgundy, evergreen, midnight and indigo I never use them in coloring.
This video is funny 😂. Your sense of humor is on full blast in this. You even gave us an excuse to buy these. 💖 I have the Brutfuner but would love to see a pastel battle.
The cold is making me goofy haha
Thanks for showing these. I already have multiple pastel sets, yet I am tempted. 😆. Seems like everyone is making a pastel set now days. Looking forward to seeing a coloring with them. Take care. 💜🎨🌸
I know...it's like pastel is the new colored pencil trend, and hey, they're winning because I'm still buying them hahahaha
That's right! Keep laughing! You are very good to make me smile for a while. Thank you for the happy distraction.
You are so welcome
I’d love a pastel colored pencil comparison video! I’ve been interested in a pastel set because I adore all things pastel but there are so many now
Gosh there really are so many...I'm looking to see if I have them all or if I've missed some ha
Shuttle Art Colored Pencils pastel 60 on Amazon for $19.99 😊
Nails on fire, they're always so good! These were particularly delicious. Thanks for another fun one!!
Haha for sure!
Yay to a pastel pencil comparison. I'd be interested to know how the various brands blend within their range, but also with other popular pencils like prismas or polychromos. Particularly the latter as they don't have much in the way of pastel colours, so which set would be the most compatible extension to the polychromos range? I'd be very curious!
Very interesting idea. Though most brands already have pastels hidden within their sets. Prisma, for example, has quite a few pastel colors already in their set of 150. But, it would be fun to see what blends together.
I ordered these too even though I knew they would most likely be the same as all the rest. I did do a side by side on these to the Brutfunner Macarons and the colors all matched exactly. They did change some of the names to original ones though. At least they did spelled all the color names right. That's always a plus in my book 😅
Yes, most of the colors will be identical in any set, just because you can only make so many pastel colors out there. Astra Pastelowe and Holbeins match up almost identical as well.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic The Brutfunner Macarons were made to dupe the Holbein pastels. I'm pretty sure kalour gets their pencils made by the same factory as Brutfunner. They will usually just have some of their sets private labeled, that's why they will have some minor cosmetic differences and nicer packaging.
My sister bought me Kalour Macaron 72 today i like them 😁😊
That's great!
@@ColorfullyOptimistic 😁
Thanks for the review! I saw these on Amazon yesterday and wondered if they were the same as the brutfuner macarons (which i love!) But im on a no buy this month so I must live vicariously 😆 mind you I didn't want them when I didn't know they existed. I need an intervention.
Buahaha. Yeah...I need an intervention. I bought these, then found a 72 pastel set by Indra and got those. I've got a problem! 😂
@@ColorfullyOptimistic how are they coming up with 72 pastels?
@@thefrugalcrafter they're def not all true pastels. I just finished swatching. As expected there are overlapping colors as other sets, then they have a few colors that are slightly different mixed with a few bright colors. It's almost like they created a set that gives you pastels and then other colors that help you incorporate the pastel shades easier. If that makes sense. I should have a video up soon.
I love the pastel colors, Love pinks!! I will have to watch your videos on this. I really love the Indra I bought after watching your video. Thank you. I might try castell art.
The Indra are still one of my favs
I do love a good swatching! I love Kalour, not happy with Castle Art. Pastel colors are my favorite, i have Castle Art, Brutfuner and another set that I can't remember the name. Thank you for sharing.
I agree i am not happy with the castle art pastel pencils.
See, I love the CA ones...dunno why but I really enjoyed them (not their price though ouchie)
@@ColorfullyOptimistic yes the price, I'm on a fixed income. But they just felt a little scratchy to me my, hands are really sensitive to that, it's like scratching nails on a chalkboard
@@RealMelodyBlue yeah I have them and haven’t used them because they’re so hard. I go for the Brutfuner’s when I want to use pastel pencils. I have the Arteza’s now too which are nice. I’m thinking about getting these though I don’t need them lol.
@@The_Lion_And_The_Lamb I've already ordered these, LoL 😂 more pencils to add to an already large collection
I have the Brutfuners because they are easily available here without being stupidly expensive. I might switch to another set if I need more, depending on the price though. Needless to say, I’d love to see a big battle of the Holbein knock-offs
It is funny how so many use the Holbein names. I mean c'mon...at least change the name
Yes thank you for the video. And you are so right about the colors-there are only so many pastels! I have the brutfune
rs, the pastelowes (I pd about $30 for them. They are from the Germany Amazon.), and the Marco Raffines which only have 24 but they really are all the same colors! I really love the Kalour 240s and now that u showed us these, I feel like I need to get these to complete the set! Or whatever it is I need to tell myself to make sense of this purchase! Lol Thank you so much!
LOL just say you bought them for the tin. We will all completely understand haha
there is a Kalour 300 set already :)
I also have all of these and was going to be making a comparison video, that is until my eye problems and surgery. So my videos are on hold for awhile. Will be a bit to get to this video but I’d be interested seeing your comparison.
Oooh I'd love to see your comparison too! Hopefully your eyes heal quickly after surgery!
It's funny you mentioned the tin...I have the 240 set of Kalour. I bought it for the tin ! 😂😜 I have the pastel tints. I really like them. Early on I bought a 15 or 18 set that I think are made by Marco. Any hooskey, I might buy these. 🤷🤷🤷 😜. If they are cheap enough. Btw... I've never opened the 240 set! 😂🎉
LOL I bought it for the tin. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
@@ColorfullyOptimistic 🤣😜😂
About the beginning of the year I pmed Black Widows & asked if they would consider a pastel set & got a response back that said...."all in due time", so that makes me wonder when they do will it be their OWN names too?
That would definitely be cool, especially if they will have their quirky spin on it and not regurgitate the same names over and over like the others lol
The Castle Arts pencils actually look like soft pastel colors, while the Kalour seem darker and more saturated to me overall. Thanks for the comparison!
Could be the pressure I used on them, but I could see that for sure.
I’m excited to see how you like these I have the 240 set of their regular pencils and I really like them. I have the arteza pastels and I’m not really to crazy on them. Lol
I have yet to try the regular, but these weren't shabby
@@ColorfullyOptimistic well that’s good to know the 240 set is amazing I think you would be pleasantly surprised with them
I would love a comparison video!
Woohoo
Thanks 😊. They’re very pretty!
They are!
I just got these and they look nice 👍
They are! Not shabby little things at all.
P.S. I would love to see a comparison video. I have the castle arts pastel set and wasn't too happy with them. I will give them another chance when i am coloring again.
What didn't you like about the CA ones? I just didn't like the price, but I found them really smooth.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic i am the opposite. Mine are scratchy as hell. Maybe a bad batch? I don't know.
I just purchased the 72 sets of pastels and metallic pencils.
Oh nice.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic Have you seen the Brutfuner metallic? They are made like the Kalour pencils, capped and look very well made. I purchased on the 50 set but I’m going back for the 72, that’s how nice they are….
Take everything I say with a grain of salt because I’m an inexperienced beginning colorist. 😂
Picked these up too. So pretty 😍
They are! Gotta love pastel colored pencils.
I am a full time artist and am considering the Holbein set
I would get a few open stock to see if you like how they perform/react. They are unique for sure.
Ugh girl!! Stop tempting me with another set of pencils 😂 but seriously thanks for the review. ✌
LOL I saw them, they were pretty, I wanted them. It happens to the best of us.
I have a no-name brand, PastelLowe, PastelTint, Arteza Pastels, Indra Creative Macaron, and the 50 and 80 sets of Brutfuner Macaron and Macaron/Neon. I believe that's all. Totally unnecessary but, you're right, SOOO pretty! 🤣 I have mine all in one case as well. They barely fit, will probably end up needing to put them into a retired case with the elastic spaces large enough for 3-4 pencils which I really dislike.
Yeah they are all the same colors at the end of the day. Quality and feel will definitely ebb and flow.
Which ones are your fav?
Which ones are your favs?
@@rainrobin4505 personally, I don't have one. They all have essentially the same colors and the quality isn't different enough to make one clearly better than the rest. 🤷♀️ I don't think any of them are a horrible choice. Everyone is going to have a different opinion on the "best".
From this video I prefer the look of the Castle Arts colours
I like the way the CA ones feel, personally, but there are many that don't enjoy them. It is all about personal preference.
I would be the Dork like you that has all of the pastel sets LOL
Nothing wrong with having a collection ha
I grabbed the pasteltints in a tin when they went on sale.
Also, I got the Brutfuner macaroon pencils and funnily enough, I did Not choose those because of reviews, or price, or anything like that. I got them because they came in a cardboard sleeve instead of a tin, and I did not want another stupid tin to guilt over bcz all the pencil tins I get end up in the donation pile or the recycle bin. If it's cardboard, I'm more likely to reuse that (not for pencils though), and if I can't, there's no guilt over putting cardboard in the recycle pile.
The Only color pencil tin I ever wanted to keep was for the polychromos
I do love my polys in their tin. They smell so good in there.
Im wondering if these same colors are included in the larger Kalour sets 🤔.
So, some are similar, but different names. So, yeah technically, but also no lol
Always tempting, however my case with pastel pencils is full.
Haha smart move!
7:15 Oh God, the mid-tone army is rising.
A lot of these r made in the same factories but sold under different names Kori so the colours n names would b the same ❤️
Yes but these brands still need to take credit for what they sell. The factory doesn't determine the name; the brand does. That said you can only make so many pastel colors in general and even those in different factories will be similar colors
Hello. Great vid, gave ya a like. My question is...how can "Y009 Mustard" be considered a Pastel color ? I also think there is probably a few others that are walking the same path as well. I think it should be re-branded as a 45 set. lol..
A lot of these sets will include an earthier tone to balance it out, but yes, it isn't a true pastel color
There is a 72 count pastel kalour out now fwiw.
I prefer the Indra so I probably won't buy them but that's good to know
Thank you Kori for the demonstration on the pastel pencils. Unfortunately the Castle Arts are a little out my price range right now here in Canada. Do you happen to have the Arteza Pastel set of 50 Triangular coloured pencils? If so what are your thoughts on these? At the moment they are on sale at Amazon for us and if you had an opinion on them? Thank you.
Yes, I do have the Arteza. I did a video on them not too long ago actually. They aren't bad.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic Thank you Kori. I'll have a look for your video. Much appreciated.
I don't care for the brufners but maybe these I may since kalour I enjoy Soo much ROFL
It is all about what you enjoy using, and both brands are definitely different in how they feel on paper.
🎉🎉🎉🎉😂It's a Mystery 😅🎉🎉🎉🎉
I juts got these and they do have the astm stamp logo on the back
That's good to know! Though I'd argue with their lightfastness lol
So pretty are these included in the 300 set though? I’m debating buying the 300 set.
I don't have the 300 set, so can't say for sure, but if I had to guess, I'd say probably so
Is these Kalour pastel set is better than brutfuner macaron set ???
I'd say yes, but only because the Brut set has a weird filler and was quite scratchy. Though neither are personal favorites of mine.
I have the Brutfuner... they look very similar nyo!
Oh they are all the same my dear. Just a few differences in their feel, but color-wise, you aren't going to find much difference.
Only have the holbein set
They are the only true artist-grade out of the bunch! Hope you enjoy them.
Does it hurt your hand when using this set & trying to blend?
No, not really.
Kori are these colours in the main set of kalour pencils or not
I'm not sure on that one, because I don't have the main set or that 300 set to confirm or deny :(
Please do comparison ... waiting
Lol for sure
What is your favourite pastel pencils ?
Ooooh...I'd have to say Indra's to be honest. I enjoy how smooth they are
Are those castle art pastel pencils, I imagine they’re not supposed to be water soluble, but are you interested in showing us if they are not? I like to mix my mediums, and I learned that the hard way to Castle Art will move like a watercolour pencil if it gets water on it. Ruined my best piece of art.
I will definitely see if the Castle Art or Kalour are and let you know.
Where did you buy them?
From Amazon US. There is a link in the description.
@@ColorfullyOptimistic ordered!
