Lots of babies have dense milia! The color is perfect so you’re totally good. It’s the bright white ones you see sometimes that are
@Evee thank you!

He was done fast!
You are an amazing artist! I love his eyebrows and subtle skin texture. May I ask what do you use for it?

Thank you Yelena! I guess it was fast, he only took me a week to paint!
I use the Americana soft touch matte varnish (nothing else added) and lay it on THICK with a wedge and pounce it all over. Then I blow dry it so it dries clear fast. It gives a really nice skin looking effect and also makes milia and such look kinda 3D. No chalkiness or roughness, but great texture.

You’ve got magic fingers when it comes to painted hair. If I could do it like that, I’d never root another hair.

Wow! That is an interesting technique that I never heard of.
I use Americana all the time, but never tried to do it your way.
Thank you so much for sharing!

You’re welcome! I should add, if you like a more matte look you have to do another coat with something to take the shine down. It’s not terribly shiny, more like a dewy look I think

@jeanhai @YelenaRey @PHehn thank you so much- one hair at a time has my hand all cramped up but it’s worth it!

How in the world do you get your hair to look sooo soft?! It’s so pretty!

Me? Thank you!!! I use a combination of 4 brushes. When I’m done I do a thin wash or two allover the hair to soften it. And I can’t take credit for the wash, I think @Alypants taught me that! The thinnest brush is a nail art liner that I cut down further.
