The range covers light, mid, and dark skin values across multiple undertones — from cool pinks to warm ochres and deep umbers — making it a precise tool for realistic skin rendering.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 3.8mm core is smooth and highly blendable, supporting seamless gradations across skin surfaces without hard edges.
