Rembrandt soft pastels are aimed at the very high standards of the professional artist and the amateur aspiring to perfection. the pastels are made from the purest pigments mixed with the finest quality kaolin. Rembrandt soft pastels have for years been the most popular artists' pastels in the world. Rembrandt pastels have a number of characteristics and unique features including the perfect degree of softness. they are so soft that a large amount of colour is immediately released, and yet hard enough not to powder quickly. the very high colour intensity and purity ensure that each piece of work has a brilliant finish. no pigments containing heavy metals are used, such as cadmium, lead and cobalt, in the production of Rembrandt soft pastels.

Apart from that, we have the Faber-Castell Creative Studio Mini Soft Pastels:

Studio quality mini soft pastels cardboard box of 24 or 48. It can easily be wiped using your finger, a piece of cloth, paper wiper or pastel brush.

Then there are the Sakura Novel Carre Pastels:

The Nouvel Carre Pastels are a semi-hard square pastel that handles like a soft texture pastel. Carre pastel is smooth and clean to the touch. The ultra fine pigments insure extreme consistency in application, texture and working qualities. The square shape is convenient for both detailed and sketch work: the corners provide a sharp point; the side of the stick allows broad strokes. Carre pastels are lightfast-capable of an infinite range of hues, shades and tints. The ideal medium for outdoor sketching, Carre pastels are clean and easy to use. They do not crumble or powder your hands. Carre pastels are water soluble and are available in rich, vivid colours. Graphic designers, architects, technical illustrators and artists now have an ideal drawing and colouring medium.
