Wow! Cheap paint?!? Pretty Excellent Watercolor set of 36 Review

Pretty Excellent Watercolor set of 36 Review ****I just heard from the seller Lithwish on Amazon and they said: "Yes, they are the same as the Paul Rubens brand paint. But they also have some difference." I think the difference is probably the packaging as the Paul Rubens paint comes in a higher end metal tin with individual plastic half pans and a chamois cloth and fancy gift box. If you were looking for a better buy on the Paul Rubens it seems this would be the set.

Turns out these "Pretty Excellent" brand watercolors live up to their name! https://amzn.to/2DlMlQ5

Pros:
Price
Bright clean transparent colors
Colors mix cleanly
Lovely tin/palette
Comes with a waterbrush or you can use the storage slot for your favorite brush
beautiful smooth colors finely milled
According the the back of the box 19 colors are absolutely lightfast and the remaining color were moderately lightfast but no pigment info is provided in English.

Cons:
All the info except color names is in Chinese so if there is pigment info available I can't read it LOL!

Bottom line, these are an amazing value for the price. There is no chalkiness even in mixes. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to use watercolors and ins't concerned with pigment composition (urban sketchers, art journalers, scrapbookers, cardmakers) or beginners who want the experience of painting with a high quality transparent watercolor without the high end price tag.

Here are the paints I reviewed: https://amzn.to/2Qdjyjn
Here are the Paul Rubens paint: https://amzn.to/2QmEFA0 *the sparkly ones looks amazing tho!

The only downside on these paints is not knowing what pigments are in them. If you take them at their word about the lightfastness they are an incredible value. Keep the back panel of the box to refer to that info if you want it.
