| This one will do just fine. I use this brand but I use the stand oil as it says its non-yellowing.

| I think someone told me to get "refined" when I was at A.C. Moore today that's what I got, that's okay right???
They had two other kind, "Stand Linseed Oil" and some other kind, I can never remember the name... |

| Jessica, They say to get the "Stand Linseed Oil" because it is non-yellowing. |

| Thank you ALL! Do you use this in every paint you mix, just on washes or just flesh layers? This is new to me ... |

| It is relatively a new addition to the lessons. We have been using it in the light layers to help get rid of the chalky appearance that sometimes happens with Flesh 8. The oil just seems to help it all hold together in solution better longer so that the paint on the baby is smoother and creamier and not seperated out as much.
I am not a moderator of course. So I may not be correct. But that is my understanding of why we have begun using it. And it really does work!

New to me too (as is everything LOL), so new question: you know how some babies we've seen have the milk bumps on noses or like a flaking skin on their heads or wrists? Is that done by using the light paints without the linseed? |
