Macron Colored Oil Pastels By Paul Rubens Are Colors You May Not Have

I recently bought a set of Paul Rubens 48 set of Macron colors of oil pastels. These light and pastel colors will compliment my two much-loved favorite brands of oil pastels. I'm going to test them out on my swatch page I made on a canvas pad for oil. I'm going to let you know what I think as I swatch them out. These are definitely colors that aren't in most sets.
I'll show you my storage, talk about fixatives, and how they compare to my other oil pastels.
Do I think these Paul Rubens oil pastels belong with my Sennelier and Caran d'ache? I've read the reviews on Amazon and I'll talk about the common complaint and tell you how important it is to me and why.
