Popular Questions

While the marker barrel and cap are recyclable, not all parts of the marker are. Because the marker components are securely sealed during the manufacturing process, we don’t recommend trying to remove the marker nib and reservoir. The marker caps can be recycled at facilities that accept #5 plastic.

Crayola did not invent the crayon. Records show that Europe was the birthplace of the modern” crayon. The first crayons were made from a mixture of charcoal and oil. Later, powdered pigments of various hues replaced the charcoal. It was discovered that substituting wax for the oil in the mixture made the sticks sturdier and easier to handle. Crayola Crayons were invented by Binney & Smith in 1902 and first offered for sale in 1903. Alice (Stead) Binney, a school teacher and wife of co-founder Edwin Binney, suggested the company manufacture an inexpensive alternative to imported crayons of that era. The trade name Crayola was coined by Mrs. Edwin Binney who joined the French word craie,” meaning stick of chalk and ola” from the word oleaginous,” meaning oily. Crayola Crayons are made primarily from paraffin wax and colour pigment. The Crayola brand celebrated its 100th anniversary during 2003 and today we manufacture over 3 billion crayons each year.

What are skin tones? 

Your skin tone is the genetic amount of melanin, naturally occurring dark brown or black pigments, in the outermost layer of your skin. Skin tones can change over time for various reasons. 

What is your skin tone? 

There are 3 traditional skin tones: Light, Medium, and Deep.

  • Light or fair skin tone: Contains a small amount of melanin within the skin.
  • Medium skin tone: Contains a fair amount of melanin within the skin, is a neutral colour, and has a beige appearance. This skin tone is often referred to as an olive” colour. 
  • Deep skin tone: Contains a large amount of melanin within the skin.

What are undertones? 

Undertones are the natural colours underneath the surface of your skin. Because undertones are under the surface of the skin, you can have the same skin tone as another person, but have a completely different undertone. Undertones are not based on skin tone. For instance, a light skin tone can have a warm undertone and a deep skin tone can have a cool undertone. Also, undertones remain the same, even when you tan. There are 3 traditional undertones: Rose, Almond, and Golden.

  • Pink, blue, and/​or red hues under the skin = Rose, pink or cool undertone
  • A mixture of warm and cool hues typically the same colour as your skin tone = Almond, neutral or olive undertone 
  • Peach, yellow, and/​or gold hues under the skin = Golden or warm undertone

What is your undertone?

You can identify your undertone by using the colour of your veins. In natural light, what colour are the veins under your skin on the inside of your arm or wrist? 

  • Blue and/​or purple veins = Rose or cool undertone
  • Colourless, same colour as your skin, and/​or a combination of blue and green veins = Almond or neutral undertone 
  • Green and/​or olive veins = Golden or warm undertone

Tips for selecting your Colors of the World skin tone crayon colour:

  • Check out the colour panels on the side of the Colors of the World crayon box. 
    • Match: Use crayon box colour panels or create colour swatches.
    • Select: Pick colours closest to your skin tone. 
    • Colour: Draw your #TrueSelfie with your unique colours!

Another way to find your skin tone crayon is to colour a small area on a piece of paper with the crayon colours closest to your skin tone. Compare the areas with the inside of your arm or wrist, and select the crayon colour that best matches your skin tone.

Our experts have a few tips to help your creativity bloom with the Crayola Paper Flower Science Kit. 

For Best Results: 

  • Protect clothing & work surface before starting.

Cleaning Tips:

  • Rinse and dry all pots, covers, funnels and watering can.

Looking for refills? 

  • Need another bouquet? White coffee filters – they are the perfect alternative to paper petals because they mimic the wicking process of the ink into the paper. 
  • Have left over ink? To make your creativity bloom again, rinse the used cores and tips under running water to clean up as much of the ink as possible. Just be sure to wipe up any ink right away and let the cores and tips dry thoroughly. We’ve found this craft hack works best when the ink is fresh and hasn’t had too much time to set.
