Prismacolored pencil color for faces

[KimK]

For those of you who use the colored pencils and OMS or baby oil for coloring, which colors do you use for coloring faces/flesh? Light and dark complexions.

I have only done light-colored faces, but I use (in this order):

base color--927 light peach
shading, deeper tones--939 peach
cheeks--928 blush pink

I'm sure everyone has their favorites--so play with them and see what YOU like, and share with the rest of us!

I use the colors that Deb Za uses. I didn't find anyother colors in the set that came close to flesh colors

Believe it or not, I bought the Crayola Multicultural Pencils to use just for this purpose. The colors are just right, no matter what skin tone you're trying to achieve. Plus, they're very inexpensive: $2.99 for 8.
