The mouth also is carried on with more detail

The cars, which are laid in with the local tints, are repainted with more color on the lobe and outer edge, and warm accents are added inside.

The mouth also is carried on with more detail. The upper lip is darker, and also cooler and more purple in quality of red than the under lip, which is bright and warm. Paint the upper lip with madder lake, white, light red, a little vermilion, cobalt, and ivory black. For the lower lip use vermilion, yellow ochre, madder lake, raw umber, a little ivory black, light red, and cobalt.

In the high light use vermilion, madder lake, white, yellow ochre, and a touch of ivory black.

At the corners of the mouth notice a soft tone of gray which makes an agreeable transition from the red to the local flesh tone.

The outline of the lips is also softened by a delicate gray half-tint both above and below.
