Princess Crayons Review - Melissa & Doug

Ciao lovelies! Today I'm doing a full review of the Melissa & Doug Princess Crayon Set!

DISCLAIMER: This review is not sponsored and myself and OFT are NOT sponsored NOR affiliated with any brand, product, or service mentioned in this review. All Opinions are entirely my own.

I bought this crayon set from Amazon's site for $3.99, you can watch my "Agere Amazon Haul" below:

The product on the site mentions "12 non-roll crayons" that were triangular shaped, & easy and comfortable to hold. The colors included are not mentioned but we can see in the product image:

That this set contains two shades of purple, three shades of pink, two shades of red, one yellow, one gold, one silver, and two shades of blue.

When I got these crayons I did a quick swatch test:

These results are from applying moderate pressure when coloring with the crayons.

I also tested the layering ability:

As you can see on the blue spots, the layering does end up coming out splotchy and not very smooth.

I did also end up breaking one of the crayons on it's 2nd use, and I was again applying moderate pressure while coloring.

PROS:

-Cute carrying case

-I do like the triangle shape of these crayons because it does prevent rolling

-If you want a more pastel look, these do a great job of that

-Includes gold and silver, which most base crayons (to my knowledge) do not

CONS:

-Moderate-high price point compared to Crayola (which is $1.39 for a 24 pack as of 5/14/2020)
-Not as durable as the triangle shape would suggest
-Very light pigmentation

My rating:

I would give this product a 3/5 stars because the pros only outweigh the cons by 1 pro, and also because of the price point. But I do like the carrying case!
