- Base layer: Start with a light pink base such as baby pink or rose blush. You press lightly in small circular stroke until you fill entire hood area evenly.
- Shading: To shade, use a slightly darker pink such as bubblegum pink or coral. You put color around the edges of the hood. Using the blending tool to make a clear transition with the base layer.
