Yes. Just don’t use oil based pastels first and then try to use water based pencils over the oil. Oil can never be followed by water. However, water can be followed by oil. I hope I am giving correct information.

Hi Elize in answer to your question
“Can I use soft pastels and pastel pencils together?”
Yes you can I use both — find it easier to use soft pastels for larger areas ie backgrounds. Pastel pencils are great for detail work. Hope that helps, Lyn

Off course!!! Use the pencils to spread colors or to draw little details or borders.
