US Art Supply 12-Color Acrylic Oil Paint Review

My daughters have always used a watercolor when they paint so I was excited to introduce them to acrylic paint. When I received the US Art Supply 12 Color Paint Set, I showed it to them and gave them the chance to try it out. Here is a quick product description from the company:

 - U.S. Art Supply® Assortment of popular Acrylic colors 12-tubes of 12ml each
 - Intermixable with Liquitex Professional Acrylic Paint Colors and Mediums.
 - High quality pigments offer smooth consistency, a satin finish, and an excellent covering strength
 - Quick drying and water-based. Versatile paints for use on surfaces such as wood, canvas, fabric and more!
 - Conforms to ASTM D4236; Safe for educational use, Non-Toxic and Non-Leaded.

The US Art Supply's 12-Color Acrylic Oil Paint came in 12 different colors. Each tube has 12 ml of acrylic paint in it. They came sealed and each cover has a puncture tip to puncture the sealed tube.

These Acrylic Oil Paint are a bit runny but blend in quite easily. They glide smoothly and dry quickly. My daughters loved mixing colors and blending colors to make new colors. I also like that this is non-toxic and non-leaded, which makes this great for my daughters.

The acrylic paint is vibrant in color and I like that my daughters had fun using this paint for the first time.

Santa Fe Art Supply Paint Brush Set Review

I am not a professional painter and neither are my daughters but, we, specially they, love to paint. I've bought countless numbers of cheap paint brushes which are always a one or at the most two-time use and that's where I was wrong. If I calculated and totaled the number of times I had to replace my daughter's paint brushes at home, then a more durable but higher priced one might've saved me money in the long run. So, when I received the Santa Fe Art Supply Paint Brush Set, I looked forward to try the durability of these brushes.

The Santa Fe Art Supply Paint Brush Set arrived in a black, zippered case.

As soon as I opened the case, I visibly saw how well made these paint brushes are. There are 16 different paint brushes included in this set and each have a different brush tip and size.

The brush tips are made of a fine nylon quality synthetic hair brush. Most brush tips were already smooth and sift but the bigger tips were a bit stiff. I washed the stiff brush tips with a dish soap and rinsed it under warm water and the bristles became soft as well.

15 of the paint brushes have a long handle which is made of wood while one of the paint brushes have a shorter handle.

Each paint brush have an individual pocket inside the case. The pockets can also be popped-up using the velcro strip at the back. I like that the pockets can be popped-up because it makes it easier to select and grab the paint brush we need to use.

I've used this on face paint and my daughters have used this on water color paint for a lot of times already and the bristles are still looking new. The long handles of the paint brushes have a glossy, smooth finish which makes them look pretty. These are light and easy to use that even my daughters don't have a problem holding these brushes.

These brushes are a bit more expensive compared to the ones I've bought before but because these are much durable, my daughters can use it over and over again. My daughters also love the different brush tips included because they can outline, fill in a color and do other things for each paint brush.

Acrylic And Oil Paint Brush Set From Ander Blake Company Review

I'm not a professional painter so I wouldn't be able to give a review from a professional painter's point of view of the acrylic and oil paint brush set from Ander Blake Company BUT I can definitely give my review of these brushes from a mom's point of view. :)

My 2 daughters love to paint and draw. We usually buy the cheap, dollar store paint brushes with a plastic handle but those paint brushes is a 1-time use for them. Yes, they're only a dollar each but when I think about it, I don't really save because they use it and then throw it away because the bristles get deformed after they use it.

When I received the Acrylic andOil paint brush set from Ander Blake Company, I was super excited to show it to my daughters.

The Acrylic Oil and Paint Brush Set from the Ander Blake Company arrived in a clear plastic tube.

The paint brush set came with a tan-colored canvas bag which has an individual pocket for each paint brush. This is nice because I can easily store the paint brushes here and protect them as well. This also makes this set easy to bring on the go.

The acrylic and oil paint brush set comes with the following paint brushes:

- 6 x natural flat brush
- 6 x natural round brush
- 6 x synthetic flat brush
- 6 x synthetic round brush

The natural bristles are a bit coarse compared to the synthetic bristles. Each paint brush has a long, wood handle for easy gripping and positioning of the pain brush.

The Acrylic and Oil Paint Brush Set from the Ander Blake Company has a quality look and feel to them. It's perfect for my daughters who are just beginners on painting and maybe perfect for those who are on a more advanced stage.

I love how much more durable these paint brushes are compared to the ones I buy for my daughters, and for less than $16 for this set of 24 paint brushes, it's not expensive anymore. Since these brushes are not a 1-time use brush, it's much more worth it because I can save money in the long run.

Non-Toxic Kids Face Paint By Beetastic Review

My daughters love it when I have their faces painted in face paint booths. Since it's not always that they have their faces painted, we usually bring them when we see one. They love picking their own designs and it's so cute how they feel giddy and happy while having their faces painted.

When I received the Beetastic Kids Face Paint, I was super excited to show it to them. At first, they thought it was watercolor paint but I told them that I can paint their faces.

Here is a quick product description from the company:

✮ 50 faces in each Face Paint Kit! This water based face painting set is FDA Approved, non-toxic, and skin friendly.
✮ Colors are smooth, easy to apply, and washable.
✮ Each Kit includes: 8 vivid colors, 2 double sided foam applicators, 1 paint brush, and 2 sponges.

The Beetastic Kids Face Paint came in 8 colors: black, white, red, yellow, blue, green, purple and light blue. It also came with 2 double sided foam applicator sticks, 2 round sponges and a paint brush.

The Beetastic Face Paint glided smoothly so it was easy to apply the face paint on my daughters' faces. They didn't get any skin irritations which is great. The colors are also vivid and bright although I did have to mix some colors like pink and orange.

My daughters chose a rainbow, a sun, a cloud and a butterfly and although I'm not an artist, they were happy when they saw how their faces.

I like how kid friendly the Beetastic Kids face paint is. I also like how easy it is to apply, how quick it dries up and how it doesn't easily smear. Aside from that, I like how it washes off easily.

My daughters are super happy that I can paint their faces at home and I'm happy that this is safe for their skin.
