Is there anyone familiar with different pastel lines? I'm wondering what line would have the best colors that last and won't go brown. Also how much do the types of pastel affect what the super would look like?

Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site.

Best pastel line?

The two most popular ones I've heard of are Nerd's Lemons and Graziani's Pastels. I heard Nerds tend to not brown out as much as Graziani's line. However there are some good Grazianai pastels out there but if I were to pick one up I would go for the Lemons NERD produces and that is just simply my suggestion because I think the yellow of it makes it very pretty even in adulthood.

Any, and all pastel lines will have variations in quality. My advice is to find an animal that appeals to you regardless of line. It's your's, so get what looks good to you.

My dawg has the bluuues.
When I started getting into pastels, I was given a little info on what to look for in babies. Just keep in mind that every case will be a little different, but using her advice has definitely helped me (IMO).
When buying babies, look for high blushing, especially on the head. And what appears orange in babies is more likely to "brown out" as it grows into adulthood.
As I said, these are some basic criteria to help, but it won't always workout exactly. (Some will brown out, no matter what they looked liked as babies, and others will get more beautiful with age.) Good luck!
