Since their introduction in 1952, Caran d'Ache NEOCOLOR™ I Permanent Wax Pastels have become a favorite among artists, designers, illustrators, educators, and creative professionals around the world. Renowned for their rich pigments, creamy texture, and exceptional versatility, these artist-quality wax pastels deliver bold, vibrant color with remarkable covering power.

Unlike water-soluble pastels, NEOCOLOR™ I features a permanent, water-resistant formula that allows colors to remain crisp, saturated, and stable once applied. The smooth texture glides effortlessly across a wide range of surfaces, making them ideal for sketching, layering, blending, mixed media work, design concepts, and expressive mark-making.

Whether you're filling a sketchbook, creating illustrations, experimenting with color, or exploring new techniques, NEOCOLOR™ I pastels offer an intuitive and satisfying creative experience that rewards curiosity and encourages play.

NEOCOLOR™ I pastels are wonderfully straightforward: vibrant color, exceptional feel, and endless creative possibilities. The permanent formula makes them perfect for artists who prefer drawing and layering without the addition of water, while the creamy texture makes every mark feel effortless. They're the kind of art supply that reminds you why making things is fun.
