Is there any alternative color to bb warm blush for air dry?

Baby Talk

Hi there everyone! I use air dry paints and I am using a tutorial that calls for BB warm blush. (The tutorial uses Genesis but I like I said I use air dry so I am adapting.) I can’t find it already mixed in an air dry color. The tutorial uses it as part of a mix for the shading color and then a warming layer. Does anyone know if there is a similar or alternative color I can use?
Thanks,
Julie

I have some Golden Paint in Violet Oxide and believe it or not that is a warm color that is similar. Golden paints come in many of the same colors as Genesis.

Waterborne Air Dry paints has a pre-blended warm blush. I am not sure it is the color you are looking for.

If you have never used Golden Fluid Paints, they are very intense in coloring so you will want to thin them down with something like Jo Sonjas Glaze Medium or Flow Medium (I like this brand for these particular products) to make them more transparant. You can also add a little distilled water to this mix.

I have used Golden before :slight_smile: I have both jo Sonja glaze medium and flow medium. How many drops of the mediums should I use?

The glaze medium says to start with 3 parts medium and one part color.

Flow Medium instructions says: Mix small amounts of Flow Medium with paint using a brush or palette knife, beginning with an approximate ratio of 2 parts paint to 1 part Flow Medium until desired consistency is achieved. Water has a diluting effect on the pigment and adhesive qualities of acrylic. Its use should be kept to a minimum.
