Received this as part of the ArtDeco Advent Calendar. I absolutely love this pencil! It has the most wonderful consistency in that it's not too hard so it can be drawn on easily and can be feathered out for a more natural look. Despite its softness, its very durable, the tip doesn't break and it sharpens easily. It's a full pencil size so you get more bang for you buck. Best of all it's smudge proof, no need to worry about reapplying throughout the day! It also comes in a wide range of shades including multiple gray shades which many other brands don't do. Will definitely repurchase!
