HIMI Gouache Paints Set, 18 Colors, 30g, jelly gouache paint set, Non Toxic Paint for Canvas and Paper, Art Supplies for Professionals, and More (Green Case

Ive never used gouache paint so I have no reference to judge, but this stuff is fantastic. I did my first ever gouache painting with this set. Its not finished yet but it looks so good. I read that gouache was prized for its opacity, but I am truly amazed at how saturated and vibrant the colors really are. The set includes 18 colors, 3 brushes, a mixing pallet, a color swatch card for reference, and an airtight storage container. Everything seems to be of good quality, the case is very durable, seals well, and has a slot for each color tray so they dont get shuffled around. I left mine in the containers but they could also be emptied into the slots, I've heard that some people like to dry them out. The mixing tray is hard plastic. The wells aren't very deep, but it's spacious and fits neatly in the case. The brushes are also nice. They are a little bit stiff which is perfect for these paints as they're slightly heavy. The paints themselves are very thick and creamy. I did notice some separation on a few colors but after stirring they were great, and the open trays make them easy to stir up. There were no instructions or tips for use, which was very frustrating for me as a beginner. I've worked a lot with watercolors and acrylics but gouache is very different. I dont want to say it's hard to use because once you figure it out, its very easy to work with, but it does take some practice. Its too thick to glide smoothly on its own, so you will need to mix it with some water, but finding the right ratio can be tricky. Too much water, and it becomes transparent, bleeds into the layers below it, or doesn't show up, and too little water will cause it to smear, streak, or lift off the paper. Unlike acrylics, this paint can be reactivated with water after it dries, which is great for fixing mistakes or making changes, but requires a very light hand when layering colors or blending them together. Its ability to rehydrate also makes it super easy to clean from brushes, and completely eliminates waste. There's a good quantity of paint in each tray and because of their amazing opacity and the fact that they're thinned with water, a little bit really goes a long way. So, they're definitely worth the price. I feel like the little tubs should have lids but the paints seem to stay pretty moist in the case. The set includes all the basics colors, and they mix really well to make other colors or different shades. It came with 2 whites. Im not sure of the difference exactly. I dont use a lot of white on its own in my paintings, but I often mix it in small portions to gradient colors, so Im glad for the extra tub. I cant wait to do more with these, I love them.

Really pleased with these for the price. The case is nice quality and so far seems to keep the paints moist (I've been using them daily for about two weeks now, but careful to seal it back up after each use). The paints are highly pigmented and you get quite a bit of each. There was some slight separation in the whites, but stirring them fixed it and they perform like the other colors. For a student or hobbyist these are a good value that will give you lots of scope to work with gouache without having to be precious about expensive materials. Despite using them daily as I mentioned, I've barely made a dent in any of the pots.

I'll start with, I purchased this in June 2021 and then kept it sealed in my drawer until last week (July 2025) when I finally came around to using it. To my great surprise, all the colors were still jelly and juicy and all the colors looked like they were new. I'm not super familiar with gouache which is why I bought this set. I wanted a set with a bunch of colors that I could use and test to see if I liked gouache. The Himi paints have been great so far, easy to use and store. I love the open box nature of it, it makes it a lot easier to access and scoop out paint. I've generally been generously misting my paints to keep them "wet" and it's been two weeks and nothing seems to be drying out so far. I would definitely recommend these for anyone who wants to paint with gouache.

While I’m not experienced with gouache, the product itself is great! The colors are very vibrant and even after just experimenting with it for a few minutes, I could tell I would love these paints. They’re super fun to use, and I’d definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to try out gouache or just experiment with a new medium! Now, I’d give this product 5 stars, but I’m being generous by docking it one star for the horrible packaging. First off, the paints didn’t come protected. At all. It arrived in a box slightly bigger than the paint set itself with nothing more than a thin plastic bag around the paint set to protect it. No bubble wrap or even paper. From a first glance, I could already see that some paint cartridges were open. Upon removing the top of the container, it looked as if only 4 cups were opened. However, once I started to remove them to clean the container and remove the plastic tops, there were about 6 or 7 in total that were opened. A couple even had tops that were pulled back nearly halfway off the jelly cups. It honestly looked like I was just given some returned item. I would have taken pictures, but seeing as my hands were covered in a mess of paint, I decided not to subject my phone to the same fate. Thankfully, all the paint was in great condition. Nothing was dried out, and other than the few spills I initially saw, there wasn’t much mess to clean. Other than spilled paint, the container and palette were fine too. I really like this product and would love to recommend it to people, but the packaging is...honestly terrible. Aside from the poor and lazy packaging it came into, the product itself looks like they just gave me a returned set, so I’m kind of miffed about that.

I really love these paints! They're real nice quality and theres so much paint within each container that they'll probably last you a long while. I just got mine the other day so i cant say how they hold up long term, but as of right now they're great for a beginner like me. Just be careful not to get paint all over your hands (as a messy artist, this is a big problem for me lmao) The box is a really nice quality plastic, the lid clips on tightly and (so far) I haven't had too many problems with it. The box initially didn't come with anything wrapped around it, but it seemed to be in good condition. The only problems really were some stains around it and a really obnoxious barcode sticker. The stains were easy to get out, but the sticker is a bit harder to get off, but its really the only annoyance I have with the product. I'm not sure if this is a problem other people are having, but theres a mixing palette inside of the lid of the box that's detachable, mine kept popping out whenever i wanted to open the box, but I just added some kneaded eraser to stick the palette to the lid, and it seemed to work fine

we all saw these on tiktok dude, if you're still thinking about buying these, you should! so many colors and you can mix & make your own easily! they are also water soluble so if they start to harden, just grab a spray bottle and reactivate them! the case they come in makes it easy for them to travel if you're going somewhere. ah it's just great. also if you've never used gouache - its like acrylic & watercolor mixed. Like it looks like acrylic but spreads like watercolor. it's magical & smooth & beautiful. now whenever i have to paint something in acrylics i get sad because they can never compete with gouache.

Such an awesome set. The colors are great, the variety is what caught my eye. The case is perfect just don’t toss around or flip upside down. Fun to use for any watercolor art and dries fairly quickly. Nice and thick guoche. Only annoying part is peeling the seal off each color…

This is my second purchase. The quality of the paints, packaging and brushes are great. Well worthy $20 bucks.

This is the second set of these paints I have purchased for my arty Daughter. They really are lovely and easy to use too.

Gostei bastante, um bom guache pra iniciantes, entrega rápida e bem embalada

Meine Tochter ist sehr zufrieden mit diesen Farben. Sie deckt sie mit Folie unter dem Deckel, damit sie nicht so schnell austrocknen. Das war ihr Geburtstagsgeschenk und sie ist echt glücklich.

Paints missing. How can this even be a mistake.

Llegó casi dos semanas antes, en perfecto estado. Pigmentos vibrantes y excelente relación costo-precio, muy buen empaque. Estoy encantada.
