User questions & answers

Question:	Why does the cost per unit increases as you try to do a bulk order? i.e. 1 unit cost $4.85, 2 units cost almost
Answer:	Not a clue. It’s great when working with pastels.
Question:	does it have perforated pages
Answer:	they will work but the problem we have had is that they are thin and light. they get stuck in the goal. our kids can't (won't) use our table because it takes away from the fun when the puck doesn't come out. check out some thicker ones in my opinion. it will be worth the extra few bucks. good luck!
Question:	Is the paper thick enough for sharpies without bleeding
Answer:	Yes these will work for replacements
Question:	I am just starting to explore Zentangles. Would this paper hold up to the Sakura pigma micron pens that are used? thanks in advance
Answer:	.03 oz
Question:	Does this fit Square Terminal
Answer:	I dont know what product you have. We have an air hockey table. They work well.

Our Company History

In 1928, at the age of twenty-two, Peter Beilenson began printing books on a small press in the basement of his parents’ home in Larchmont, New York. Peter—and later, his wife, Edna—sought to create fine books that sold at ''prices even a pauper could afford.''

Today, still family owned and operated, Peter Pauper Press continues to honor our founders’ legacy—and our customers’ expectations—of beauty, quality, and value.

User questions & answers

Question:	How much does it weigh
Answer:	Less than 1%. It is one of the most widely used ingredients in cosmetics. Dimethicone works, most generally, as a skin protectant - it prevents water loss by forming a hydrating barrier on the skin. Dimethicome has a unique fluidity that makes it easily spreadable. When applied to the skin, its known for creating a subtle gloss that feels smooth and silky to touch. It also acts a mild water repellent by forming a protective barrier on the skin, and can fill in fine lines/wrinkles on the face, giving it a temporary “plump” look. There are many different versions of dimethicone. A high percent of skin care product use inexpensive (inferior) versions which have gotten a bad reputation. Gloves In A Bottle has always only used a very specialized medical grade dimethicone that, when formulated with other ingredients, actually bonds to the cells of the outer-most layer of skin. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved its use as a "skin protectant" ingredient in over-the-counter (OTC) drug products. Furthermore, the Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel reviewed the data surrounding dimethicone, and assessed it as safe to use in personal care products.
Question:	How easily would you be able to tear a sheet of paper out of this sketchbook
Answer:	According to the info on the jar, the ingredients are: aqua, cetearyl alcohol, PEG200 stearate, Glycerol, parraffinium liquidium, titanium dioxide, and methyl hydroxberzoate. It has worked well for me as a hand protection when painting with pastels. I have had no problem with mold even with no refrigeration.
Question:	Has anyone used this sketchbook with mixed media (e.g., geso, stamping, inking, paint, etc)? If so, how has it held up
Answer:	I don't know about their product testing. I did use the product to offer additional protection against oily hardwood dust irritants (bocote) and it worked great as a supplement to nitrile gloves.
Question:	Hows the bleed through for anyone using markers in the regular sketchbook
Answer:	Yes, gluten free.
