Found a new fun media today - gel crayons! They are somewhat blendable and the colors are very vibrant! They do smear if pushed hard with hands (green leaf). You can highlight them with paint pens (orange). And the darker colors need a very light tough (purple) when blending. I did all these leaves in under 5 minutes, so they are messy. They don't really "dry" per say so I'd recommend putting blank sheets of paper between coloring pages. I mostly got them for background filler.
But the color glides on like lipstick and gives me happy ASMR vibes 🥰 also great for kiddos too!
They are super soft and have a great performance after some practice.

These gel crayons are almost the perfect solution to what I was looking for. I needed a gel crayon with similar quality to Crayola Slick Stix but with a larger variety of colors with corresponding lights and darks, and this is the only one I could find that is sold in more than just a max of 12. Another pro is that they are skinnier than a typical gel crayon, so you can get a little more detail than the chunky ones. There's also a peach that you could use as skin if you add white to it, and I like that they come in twistable barrels to avoid mess and breakage. The only cons are: many of the lighter colors produce some grain as you color, so you have to be careful to swipe it off or blend it in. A few of the colors are very similar - the yellows, reds, and greens each have one color that is almost exactly like another one but just barely lighter in tone. The pinks are disappointing, the lighter one leaves a lot of streaks and neither one have that satisfying boldness to it. There's a lot of browns, so I wish they would have sacrificed the brick red brown for a bold magenta. They are not as glidy as the Slick Stix, however, on smooth paper they work great and blend well - whereas the Slick Stix don't budge when you try to blend. You can judge for yourself with the attached photos; I think they're fun for kids and adults and the overall quality is pretty good.

I love these gel crayons. They are very creamy and easy to apply. I use them in my coloring book. I needed something soft to color with since I have pain in my wrist. I love that it's easy to apply and even with water it doesn't bleed through the book like watercolor brushes.
I apply the gel crayons three ways 1) directly to the book and use a wet brush to smooth it and drag it out, 2) I swipe the wet brush on the gel crayons and use the brush to apply it, or 3) I smear it on my porcelain dish and pick up with my water brush. How I apply it depends on how much pigment I want and what I'm coloring.
I wouldn't recommend these for young children but it can be great for older children who love watercolor.
Pros
Colors are bright
Several colors
Creamy
Easy to use
Water soluble
Pigmented
Great for people with pain in their hand
Cons
Pinks are streaky
Light colors are somewhat waxy
Too large for details (use a brush)

People ALWAYS ask us about these! We love to put them out at birthday parties as an activity but our kids color with them almost daily. Older and younger kids love them because they are so vibrant and the colors show up with little effort compared to crayons, colored pencils, etc.
