I haven't perfected it yet but close You will need the colours and cocktail sticks to pick up tiny amounts of colour

Try paint on soft white, add some top coat, a touch of orange and also tiny touches of yellow and red.

The soft white sculpting gel makes a better mix- it's even softer than the POW. Try adding a scoop of opaque pink to the mix too.

I mix equal parts soft white and french pink warm with a pinch of yellow. It's a very nice natural shade.

Thanks for that Heather but that presumably makes a sculpting gel. I am looking for a paint on natural edge - any suggestions other than what I am doing ?

I mix a very small amount of Brisa bold red and green into some of my POW to get a softer white but you might try adding some clear or sheer pink to cut the mix to soften it even more.

Of course I have a suggestion!

Use the sculpting mix.
