Hello I am Jodi, wonderful to meet you
In today’s fast-paced, modern world, we are over-worked, over-connected and under increasing levels of pressure, stress and overwhelm. Many are looking for ways to opt-out, slow down and reconnect with what truly matters, but don’t know where to start.
I love these pastel pencils so much. The relaxing smooth way they colour makes it so much fun. The only sad thing.... I want every colour not just earth colours!
Hi there,
Thank you for your positive review of our Woodless Pastel Pencils! We are so glad to hear that you enjoy using them and find them relaxing to colour with. We apologize that the set only includes earth colours, but we do offer a variety of other sets with different colour options. We appreciate your feedback and hope you continue to enjoy using our products.
Have a colourful day!

Fall out and smudging
There was lots of dust/fall out leading to smudging of the product that I didn’t want. They are a super cool concept and I did enjoy some of the colors. I think they just need to tweak the formula a bit.
