Review title is Black color [SEP] I got these because they were made in the U.S.A. and I want to support small businesses when I can. The guides are black as opposed to white which I am use to. They came in a cute envelope for storage with a personal handwritten note from the seller - a nice touch. I have not used them yet but they look to be good quality. The instructions say (base color should be completely dry before applying guide. Apply guide, apply color, remove guide while color is still wet.
