Crayola 24ct Colors of The World Crayons Skin Tones

Great collection of crayons, brown and skin colour tones (from the Nordic whitest people to the Blackest African). Great price and a huge amount of crayons. I think that half the number of crayons would have been enough, but, on the other hand, I can use these for everything not just to paint faces or skin. They are a great selection of neutrals. Like all crayons by this brand, I have to be careful not to exert too much pressure or they break in half. Good value for money and they can be stored anywhere.

Youshares Colored Pencil Case 166 Slots Pen Case Organizer

PROS 
> Beautiful exterior design. 
> Good quality sturdy materials. 
> It accommodates tons of my drawing stuff: different kinds and lengths of markers, pencils, crayons and what's not. See my photos. 
> The elastic bands aren't individual but 2-3 joint together, large ones, which comes handy to put different sizes of pens together still keeping them all secure. 
> Great to carry around. 
 
CONS 
> A bit bulky. 
> Takes lots of space in my drawer and it's not easy to accommodate in small spaces. > Zip area a bit too tight or close to the inner trays.

Crayola 24 Pack Regular Crayons

This is a decent set of permanent (not water-soluble) crayons. I use them for mark making in my mixed media projects. The pigments are decent and noticeable. I'd say they are a cheap alternative to good quality permanent crayons if you are on a tight budget and if you want them for non-professional use, needless to say. Amazing value for money.

DOWNSIDES
> The sticks snap half easily if you exert a little bit of pressure.
> The paper labels covering each stick aren't the color of the stick but the family color they belong to.
> The choice of color isn't the best. There are too many oranges and not enough greens and not even a brown.
