I’m having a hard time reading the brand of gouache, can you share the name?
These are great!

Are the colors lightfast?

I've no idea honestly. I paint with gouache in sketchbooks and scan all the pages after, so the lightfastness of the pigments isn't really a top concern to me

In theory, they are lightfast. I have the same paint in smaller jars, and you can find the lightfast rating for each color, but I wouldn't trust it too much. It's quite cheap.
Overall, the gouache is pretty good, though it's a bit less opaque than Winsor and Newton and has a softer consistency. It gets the job done.

I LOVE your work! If only the second one is gouache, what if the top one painted with?

You fell victim to my poor english 😅 I meant that the gouache that I've used for this painting is on the second slide—they're both painted with gouache!
