Paint does not dry after it is activated
I have purchased many refills of the Oval 8 sets for my middle school art room. The newer formula paints do not dry after they are activated, and stay slimy in the pans. Also, the paint can be re-activated on the paper even after it is fully dry. Students often use too much, and their paper gets sticky as well. If they are not stored level, the paint flows out of th...

Used to be better.
The paint is great -- same as it's always been, but recently the brush has been replaced with a piece of garbage. The old brush used to come to a lovely point, and this one looks like the tail of an angry cat. Bummer. I'm unlikely to buy this again, unless they change the brush quality back.

Great metallic colors BUT they remain sticky.
We spent a lot of time and energy painting beautiful cards. It's been over 3 weeks and the paint is still sticky so they can't be put in envelopes. Even the paints themselves do not dry in the pans.
Help! please.

Product issue! Upsetting a lot of students!
I ordered these for 3 grades of students in my school since due to Covid, they need their own supplies. They are defective! They were fine when I checked them in and packed them, but even before the students used them, the turquoise and the yellow turned to liquid! It is happening to a few each week. All the other colors are fine so it's not a temperature issue because ...

Almost impossible to get glitter on your paper
I bought dozens of these for my students. We were so disappointed. The palette looks amazing! But it’s almost impossible to transfer that pretty glitter onto the paper. A huge waste.

Fun glitter paint!
I love playing with paints, as I like to use it in my art work quite often to help my artwork pop. This washable paint set features glitter paint, which is so fun and nice from the usual paints I work with. I enjoy the portable packaging, as the packaging is slim and easy to hold as well as carry with me when i am on the go. The packaging also has a clear lid, which hel...

Fun & Beautiful!
My family & I have craft nights as often as possible & it is hard to find a good glitter paint that doesn't flake off everywhere imaginable. I'm very impressed by this set because it looks so good when dry & the glitter actually stays on the everything we have painted!

Nice colors
I got the watercolor washable metallic paint set for my daughter. She loved painting with it. The colors came out nice on the paper. When it did get on her hands it washed off right away even when very dried on. Definitely would buy again.

Smooth
These water colors are so vibrant and beautiful!! They are so easy to use. Just add some water to your brush and put in whichever paint you want to use. Then you can color the watercolor pages or just a regular sheet of paper. Not messy at all. After you’re done you just clean off the brush with water and put it back in the case and shut it. So fun for children and adul...

Great Paints!
These paints are vibrant! They dry with a nice metallic finish. Great coverage for a watercolor. My 4 year old loves these as much as I do. Very easy to moisten and get them started unlike other watercolors that take lots of water to get the color/coverage you need.

Great for kids
I got the Ticonderoga Watercolor Washable Metallic paint set from Tryit Sampling for being a BazaarVoice member in the online community. My words are my own. I really loved using this with my 5yr old because the metallic gives the artwork a extra pop of color. You can see each tiny shimmer inside each individual color after opening. These are great for kids or even begi...

Nice Colors
The watercolor paints are very good, nice colors, smooth when you paint. Easy for the kids, if you want strong colors just add a little bit of water, if you want lighter colors add more water. Perfect for the kids to don’t make a mess.

Best on the market
These are the best water colors on the market. I have used many brands and this is my favorite consistency. They are wonderful quality: Great for experienced artists or for kids. My 5 year old daughter loves this set as well.

My girls absolutely love this
Honestly, I got this for my girls. I don't have much use for it. They, however, absolutely loved this product. It was pretty much depleted after a couple of hours. I'm also very lucky that it is washable, because it got a little all over the place! haha. Time well spent! Thank you!

Great Watercolors
I have really like this 8 color watercolor set. The colors are vibrant and deep. The case is sturdy and has mixing wells in the lid to mix colors. There is a place in the bottom to store the brushes. You can even get a replacement for the paints. It is easy to clean up and fun to use.

Fun painting experience
My toddler son and I have really enjoyed these glitter paints. I like that it comes with a brush, but for us using our fingers gave us the best color pay off. The glitter is a fun touch and the paint colors are vibrant. I also like that it was indeed easy to get him washed up after his painting spree wound up on his body. These paints would be perfect to use for fun gi...

Good product
This product is great to keep my kids busy. They are washable so its safe to give kids to keep them busy. It washes away with water so I am happy regarding its maintenance. The colors are good but it does get messy. I am pretty happy.

So Excited With The Glitter Paint!
My child absolutely loves this glitter paint, honestly so do I! The colors are vibrant and the glitter is evenly distributed when painting so no worries about clumping. I have already put in a order for two more. GET THIS!
