The best color pencils
These are really the best color pencils. They color smoothly and consistently. They’re great for shading and blending. The colors are vibrant. The clear easel packing is very cool, when opened it’s like a little stand making it even easier to see and choose which color next. They are high quality pencils, great for both young and adult artists.

My favorite colored pencils
These are fantastic, every artist’s dream. The colors are so vibrant and vivid and they blend like a dream. The colors available are a great balance for a packaged product. They aren’t hard and waxy, they’re soft but without being fragile. And let me tell you they LAST. I’ve had my same pack for three years now. I highly recommend. My fave’s!!

Pencil crayons worth buying?
Prismacolor Premier pencils are super smooth and blend beautifully—great for shading and layering. The colors are rich and vibrant, perfect for detailed artwork.Downside: the soft core breaks easily when sharpening, and the packaging isn’t the best for storage or travel.Overall, they’re a bit pricey but worth it if you’re serious about art.

Wonderful
The Prismacolor 24-pack of colored pencils is a fantastic choice for both beginners and seasoned artists. The pigments are rich, vibrant, and smooth, which makes blending effortless and layering colors a joy. Each pencil sharpens easily without breaking, and the soft cores deliver consistent coverage, whether you’re filling in large areas or working on fine details. I especially appreciate the range of shades included in this smaller pack—it still offers a balanced selection of warm, cool, and neutral tones, so you can achieve depth without needing the larger sets. The pencils glide across paper with a creamy texture, leaving no waxy residue, and the saturation really brings artwork to life. While Prismacolor pencils are known to be a little more delicate than cheaper brands, the quality of the color payoff and professional results are worth it. Overall, this 24-pack is a reliable, high-quality set that makes creating art both fun and rewarding.

Good
Customers like the quality, appearance, color and softness of the coloring pencils. They mention that they are far more durable than the Premiers, blends nicely and that the tips are soft enough that it doesn't look forced or unnatural. They also like the blendability, value, and performance. That said, opinions are mixed on sharpening.

Greay Quality & Pigmentation!
As an Art Teacher, I always trust Prismacolor quality when purchasing colored pencil. This Scholar Class Pack is something I purchase yearly for my students. Great quality and super pigmented and blend-able colors! The kids are always excited, they recognize the Prismacolor brand and love that they get the chance to use these at school!

The best memories
I can not think about school or even high school assignments without remember my beloved prismacolor colored pencils, I have always loved to color, so when my mom got me the 36 ct box I was over the moon, these pencils were a joy to use. They glided smoothly, the shades were vibrant and the metallics were amazing. 100% Recommended

This brand is amazing as an artist
I don’t have a photo of this because I use this at school in the past but the packaging is good and the blend is good. The variety is good for like hyper realistic drawings or realistically drawings in certain shades in dark and the pigment is good and the dirt ability is great, especially unlike the prisma color colored pencils.

The BEST
I use these in my classroom for my students all the time because they are the same quality as the standard prismacolor pencils, however, they are a more affordable price point. These are great pencils for young artists especially who need a simple starter set of professional grade materials that color and blend extremely well.

Just buy the premier ones :)
I bought these cheaper versions of Prismacolors, thinking I could save a few bucks. Boy, was I wrong. These are worse than Crayola. They don’t blend and are far too waxy, the packaging isn’t reusable, and there’s about 3 yellows that all look the same. Honestly, I would just pay the extra money and get Prismacolor premier.

Best for the price
Prismacolor has always been one of the more high end but affordable brand for colored pencils and these are honestly the best. For the price you get a good variety of colors, colors that are vibrant and super easy to blend with. If used correctly, one sharpening could last through many art projects. 10/10 would buy again.

Easy to use
Colorful, blendable and easy to use. Great for professionals and beginners. Decent variety in this set for warm colors. Packaging standard. Seems durable the top doesn’t break when pressing down hard on the paper. Also a decent price for what you get. For starting a pencil collection this is great to add on to a base set.

Was Expecting More
Colored pencils are my go-to medium, so maybe I am expecting a lot. But for the price I was really hoping these were going to be amazing. I do like how you can fold the package so they stand up. But as far as quality, these are hard to blend because the pigment is not soft. They are very hard and pieces break off easily.

Bright Colors!
Very impressed with the Prismacolor Scholar Color Pencils. They are very bright and vibrant and good quality. I do a lot of coloring in my adult coloring books and these are perfect. The tip of the pencils are also good quality they did not break off like cheap colored pencils. I like how many come in the pack as well.

Not all colored pencils are the same!
can tell you, not all colored pencils are created equal. I tend to search for colored pencils that have rich, saturated colors, and a variety of shades. I adore this set. I have an adult coloring book with beautiful mermaid, and dolphin images, this set is perfect for me to use to bring the pages to life. This is a set of 12 colored pencils. This set is an Under The Sea theme, the color selection is specifically picked with regards to the frequency of colors typically used in such images. I am happy with it, there's a decent range of selected colors. The pencils are presharpened. They come in a metal tin to protect against accidental damage. They have a soft lead that is waxed based. The colors are vivid, there is great pigmentation. The soft, thick core makes for a smooth laydown. Each one is easy to blend, and they are excellent for shading. I like the creamy texture, and found they don't smudge, unless I want them to.These are great for any project, big or small.

Best Colored Pencils
These colored pencils write/draw so smoothly! I picked up a pack from Dirt Cheap, and I cannot get over how well they have worked. The container they come in is easy to open and close. There are several colors to choose from. They last for a long time. They blend better than any other colored pencils I have ever used.

Ok
Prismacolor Verithin pencils come in decent packaging and offer a fair variety of colors. However, their blendability is limited, and the ergonomics could be improved for a more comfortable grip during long sessions. While the price point is reasonable, this particular set isn't my favorite due to these drawbacks.

🎨 Prismacolor Premier Colored Pencils
I absolutely love how smooth and creamy these pencils feel! The colors are rich, vibrant, and blend beautifully together. They’re perfect for detailed art or soft shading — every drawing looks professional. The leads can be a bit soft, so sharpen gently, but overall these are totally worth it for the quality! 🌈✨

Great variety
I really wnjoy the variety of colors prismatic color's scholar pencils have! These are much more vibrant than others. I love how soft the coloring is! Just be careful not to press down too hard or you could create piles of rainbow dust that, when wiped or blow away, may color your page in all the wrong spaces.
