## Summary description

VALLEJO Xpress Color 72.457 Fairy Skin is an 18 ml acrylic paint from the Xpress Color line, formulated for fast-drying, smooth coverage and easy mixing. Designed for miniatures, figures and model painting, it provides consistent pigmentation and flow for detail work and layering. Suitable for hobbyists and modelers seeking reliable skin-tone color.

## Long description

VALLEJO Xpress Color 72.457 Fairy Skin 18 ml is an acrylic paint formulated for miniature, figure and model painting. Offered in an 18 ml dropper bottle, this paint provides fast drying, smooth flow and consistent pigmentation to support fine detail work and layering techniques. The Fairy Skin shade is designed as a skin tone alternative for fantasy figures and delicate flesh highlights, and it mixes readily with other acrylics from the same line for tonal adjustments.
Advantages
The fast-drying water-based formula delivers even coverage and stable brush flow, reducing brush strokes and allowing quicker successive layers. The paint’s consistency and pigmentation make it suitable for detailed edging, glazing and gentle highlights on small surfaces. Its compatibility with other acrylics in the same line supports blending and custom color mixing without compromising adhesion.
Suitable for
 Miniature and tabletop figures
 Scale models requiring skin tones or fantasy characters
 Detail work, layering and glazing techniques
 Hobbyists and modelers seeking quick-drying acrylics
When it may not be suitable
This paint is optimized for small-scale hobby and model applications rather than large-area coverage. For very large surfaces or for projects that require long open time for extensive wet blending, a slower-drying or higher-volume acrylic may be more appropriate. Users requiring extreme opacity in a single coat may need multiple layers or a dedicated primer.
Key specifications
 Volume: 18 ml
 Type: Water-based acrylic paint
 Drying speed: Fast-drying
 Finish: Matte to satin when dry, depending on thinning and layering
 Application methods: Brush; compatible with airbrush when appropriately thinned
 Color family: Skin tone / fantasy flesh
How to use
Shake the bottle gently before use. Apply directly with a fine brush for detail work or thin slightly with water or an acrylic thinner for smoother flow and airbrushing. Allow each thin layer to dry before applying additional layers to build opacity and smooth transitions. Clean brushes with water immediately after use. When mixing with other paints, test the resulting shade on a scrap surface before applying to the model.
What to consider before purchase
 Intended scale of work — optimized for miniatures and small models
 Need for fast-drying properties versus open blending time
 Requirement for multiple thin layers to achieve full opacity
 Compatibility with other acrylics and varnishes used in your workflow
Usage recommendations
 For best results on miniatures, use this VALLEJO Xpress Color Fairy Skin in thin layers over a neutral primer, build highlights with successive thin glazes, and seal with a compatible matte varnish to protect detail without altering tone.
