Caran d’Ache Neocolor II are water-soluble wax oil pastels that give exceptional coverage, smoothness and extreme lightfastness. There are 84 colours in the range that can be used wet or dry.

How to use:

Use the Neocolor II firmly to create a thick and solid layer of colour to create a look and feel that is very similar to oil pastels. Water can then be added with a brush to create a painted look like gouache.

Once wet the crayons can be repeatedly reworked. Additionally when wet, if a mistake is made most of the pigment can be lifted off with the use of a damp cloth.
