I’m a heavy painter. I cannot achieve a soft look if my life depends on it. They don’t look done to me so I keep painting. Yet, when I see other reborns that have a soft complexion they look amazing. So what’s the secret? What colors do you use and don’t use if you’re a peaches and cream artist…thank you for any help

This is my first soft complexion and it is killing me daily to not touch her
Does she need anything? I am really trying to keep her pale and pretty since my other Hux was colorful boy.

I might go back and get one more…can’t wait to get my first one.
I’m the same as you. I like other’s soft complexions when I see them, but I can’t stop putting on the layers and do it myself.

I’m finding that I’m the same way! I need the secret too. I’m going to attempt it on the kit I’m starting tonight…IF there are some good tips and IF I can just put the paint down!

To me the most soft complexion artist on this forum is Donna Rich and I love how her babies looks.

This baby is not quite finished but I used lots of colors in lavender, periwinkle, and pink/ purple tones.

Beautiful skin tones! Love your work 
All she needs is finishing touches like nails, eyelashes, eyebrows and her actual hair and I’d say you nailed your first soft complexion baby. How did you do it? Did you get that Genie to grant you a self control wish? She’s gorgeous but I wouldn’t be able to stop because of that very fact. I’d think, oh look at this gorgeous baby I made, let me add a little bit here and a little bit there and then I would take it too far.
