Review: Impressive! They came well-packaged in a bubble wrap bag, the box is pretty, it's a cardboard sleeve with two thick plastic trays housing the pencils. They blend pretty well! They feel very dense going down, creamy if a bit dry and prone to crumbs. Most colours have great pigment laydown, but unfortunately it's quite inconsistent from colour to colour. The first half of the set is fantastic, but unfortunately the greens kinda drop the ball. Some have a lot of filler and feel quite scratchy, those colours are not pleasant to work with. I made a quick simple (half)portrait where I used these along with a few Brutfuner Macarons (also from Shein), and they are completely workable, but you do have to fight with the pencils a little bit. The white is pretty good both as an opaque white and for blending. Most of the lighter colours show up well over the dark ones, so you can definitely create a paint-like effect with them. Shein PLEASE stock the 120 set, I'd buy it in a heartbeat!!!
