I bought the paints for my young granddaughter. She loved them, and she showed me seven paintings she did using these paints. She made a painting of masks for me and titled it Staying Safe in the Pandemic. Painting allows children to express their feelings in a creative way.. These paints were reasonably priced and I will be ordering more for her.

Disappointed
This review is coming from an artist's point of view. I bought this to paint on a cloth and microfiber type fabric. Like a table cloth, and then fabric. I noticed a few things: 1. The paint is so thin that it is very transparent. You would have to use several layers in order to get the look you want. 2. It did not glow in the dark for me. Could be a bad batch, unsure. Definitely didn't meet my expectations, and I'm very disappointed.

    Too thick to flow as paint should. Poor coverage. Several coats needed, and brush marks hard to conceal because of the thick consistency. Can't paint fine lines with paint that won't flow. I have craft paint from this brand I have been using for30 years, and needed new ones. What a disappointment.

    Comes with grey not black
    Not sure if this was for use outdoors. Didn't want to take the chance. So got clear spray paint to. Bright and vibrant colors. But did not come with black, only grey.

    Amazing color
    The colors are great quality very good coverage and beautiful vibrancy once dried. I would have loved to see black in the set but it's easy to add it.

    Fun but thin
    I really like this paint. So far I've only used the pink and green. The pink is like bubble gum pink and the green will remind you of a green highlighter. While the colors are nice and fun and neon, the paint is very thin. Sometimes thin can be good because it's buildable. Regardless, the paint is great for beginners. I feel like an experienced painter might not enjoy these much. Although the paint is thin, it doesn't dry super quick.

    Great for fun projects
    These came in 6 jars. 2 if them were the same color. They are like fluorescent colors. Easy to apply. Once you apply, the only thing to note is you need to charge the paint. Put it under sunlight or indoor lights. I mainly put it under indoor lights and it glows. It's not a very center of attraction kind of glow, but it does glow in the dark.I haven't tried charging it in the sunlight to see if the glow would be brighter. Also applying more layers makes the glow better. However, I have seen that it glows better when painted on lighter surfaces. Great for Halloween and other projects.

    Great Paint
    This stuff is great! It dries fairly fast. One hour between coats. It's not too runny. I've used it to add a glow effect to a Harry Potter wand. I'm planning on adding some glow to wall hangings and decorations around my son's room. This is easy to work with. It doesn't have a strong smell. Definitely worth having!

    Cool colors
    Thin, but noticeable with a few coats. These colors went on thin, but came out OK for our painting of our dog. The kids had fun painting with it and it washed off our hands easily. We'll see if the glow in the dark feature works, but it would definitely take a few coats to be really noticeable.

    REALLY GLOWS!
    This is so cute. It really glows with no lights needed to "charge it" and it stays that way. My adult children had a ball finger painting with this stuff for halloween. It could be used for anything really. They used it for T-shirts when they went haunting this year but you could use it on anything. I walked in the kitchen with the lights off and it was sitting there in the bottles glowing! It is a nice set to have in your paint collection.

    Colorful and bright acrylic paint
    Very cool glow in the dark acrylic paint set, it comes with 6 tubes of paint, 5 different colors. It is a quality paint, easy to work with. The neutral color is much brighter in the dark than the colorful ones, but they all work great. The tubes has a good amount of paint and the colors are nice and bright. My family loves doing arts and crafts together, my 5 years old son was very excited to see his art glow in the dark once it was done and we all loved it!

    Good!
    Haven’t used them yet, but the colors are vibrant and the paint doesn’t appear old or gloopy. I took a picture if the color names because I wasn’t sure what colors I was getting
