## Overview

Faber-Castell Gelatos Pastels Color Set features 15 soft, blendable, acid-free pastel sticks that glide smoothly and are water-soluble for versatile mixed media use. Ideal for multiple surfaces including paper, fabric, and wood, this set includes blending tools and a paintbrush, all housed in a durable clear case for easy portability and organization.

## Description

The 15 piece Gelatos Sets are perfect for keeping your favorite color categories together! Gelatos are extremely versatile and work beautifully when used to tint Gesso, Whipped Spackle, Texture Luxe and other mediums. The Pastels set contains 12 soft blendable colors that are reminiscent of French macaroons. Each set contains 2 blending tools and a paintbrush. The clear storage case makes the set easy to transport and organize. Includes the following colors: Coconut, Buttercream, Aqua Dolce, Watermelon, Guava, Peach, Earl Grey, Caramel, Kiwi, Fig, Elderberry and Strawberry.

Review: These are fun to play with and they glide on the page when applied. However, when water is added, it’s not really pigmented and the colours don’t show up much, if at all for some of the lighter pastel colours. Am slightly disappointed at that as I was hoping to use it both dry and wet for mixed media.
Review: El producto llegó antes, bien empacado sin maltrato en el manejo. Me encantaron los gelatos, además de que los encontré en muy buen precio! Muchas gracias!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: If used like a watercolor stick, can you write with a marker over it once it's dry?**
A: Ok, I just tried that with a gelato and white watercolor marker.  It seemed to work fine, as a bonus, the gelato did not discolor the marker nib.  I did use a heat gun to dry the wet gelato.

**Q: I want to order the pastel colors, but Picture and description colors don't match??**
A: The title "Faber Castell Pastels Gelatos Mix & Match Set", ASIN B00U5M0756, is the pastel set, even though the color is listed as "creamy."

**Q: Can these be used in Adult Coloring books?**
A: These can be used as watercolors in adult color books with removable pages--like the HOTP Colorist books. They should not be used with lighter-weight double-sided pages.

**Q: What are the 2 wedges in the kit used for, 1 is soft and 1 is hard?**
A: I use them for blending and making marks in the product once it's on the surface. Makes beautiful blended gradients and texture.

*by A***. on 26 May 2019*

Love these. They’re pale though and I would have liked the bright colours but they never seem available here. Really versatile product. Suggest watching a few youbtube videos on what they can achieve for you as the packaging doesn’t do them justice.
