This
is a good masking tape for the price. I mostly use it to frame paper
sheets when painting. Easy to stick, lift and reposition. The only
downside for me is that the colour is so similar to the painting paper
colour that I sometimes cannot distinguish the edges.
UPDATE 7/6/22
I've
been using this tape for several months and my experience is that,
beyond what I said initially, it ruins my watercolour paper, as this
isn't low tack. This especially happens when I have the tape on for more
than a couple of hours. I tend to heat the tape before removing it, so
that the glue softens, but, even then, the watercolour paper I use (180
mgs or 200 mgs) gets damaged. In all honesty, that's the same experience
I have with more expensive brands, so in that regard is as good as any
major brand, but not good enough for my needs. I won't purchase it
again.
I'm a bit disappointed with the quality of this ruler. I bought this one because I own a couple of plastic rulers and I needed something steadier and with some grip to draw lines with ink pens and paintings, so this seemed ideal. The steel is good, but also feeble and wobbly, not strong enough. This being the case, the ruler is not steady enough. Also, for whatever reason, the lines don't come up clean. It doesn't help that the cork at the base has some edge, as it doesn't cover the full ruler belly and I think contributes to the wobbliness. It would not use this with paints or ink pens, just to measure or use with pencil.
I
have been using this product for several years now, and it does wonders
for my eyebrows. The tinting lasts for several weeks, and it looks like
the tint I used to have done at a salon before I started using this
kit. This is so because the results look natural and polished and it
doesn't tint my skin at all. The kit comes with everything you need, so
you don't need any extra tool or container to develop and use the
product. I sometimes use the product to tint the grey hairs around my
temples.
I have sensitive skin but I have never had any problem with this product.
I have never used this for tinting my eyelashes, so I cannot comment on that.
SO-SO
1/
They seem to have changed the formula recently and the colouring
doesn't last as much on my eyebrows and it is not as saturated as it
used to be.
2/ The quantity of accelerator and tinting cream is not
balanced, so I usually finish the tube with the colouring and the
developing liquid bottle is still half full.
MIND
Allow extra time if you have some grey hairs.
I love this soft brush pen. It's extremely pleasurable to use, and the results on paper are what you can expect from a quality brush pen minus the mess I get from other brush pens on the same price range. I love the tiny Kanji plastic template included in the package. Mind: The instructions and labelling are all in Japanese.
This is a very good quality beautiful easy to clean geometric ruler that I use mostly to draw lines and shapes when painting or scrap-booking. I love the fact that I can use it a ruler, as a protractor, to create circles, triangles and other geometric shapes. Easy to clean even when I use it with Indian ink. It comes in a handy plastic pouch and instructions leaflet. Unfortunately, everything is written in Chinese.
Beautifully detailed, this stamp is made of clear silicone and in a sort of bass-relief way so the image comes off quite polished and defined. Super easy to wash even if used with solvent ink.
This is a decent quality notepad for drawing with pencils, charcoal and pastels. Not good for gouache, tempera or watercolor as it bleeds, and you'd need to apply gesso for a sheet to hold any water or ink painting. Paper not good either for permanent ink makers; a normal sharpie ink would go through. I wanted this for doodles and to try stuff before using my good quality pad, so that's OK, but this is not a paper I would use with any water or permanent ink medium. Elastic strap came out of one of the holes. Good quality cover and back.
