Seaside Peeps 12 Double-Sided Color Pencils

The double-sided design means I get 24 colors without a bulky case taking over my desk, and the die-cut box is genuinely pretty enough to leave out. Colors lay down smooth with no scratchy drag, even the lighter shades.

I was honestly not expecting to get 24 distinct shades from just 12 pencils, but each side draws so smoothly that switching colors mid-sketch feels effortless. The double-ended design keeps my travel case so much lighter, and the fade-resistant claim gives me confidence these will hold up in my art

The pigment payoff is genuinely strong—one pass gives me that saturated color I usually need three strokes for. I also love that flipping the pencil means a whole new shade, so my travel kit feels twice as useful without adding bulk.
