as a base? id never thought of it like that, it just seems weird bc whenever iv seen people have it, its the only paint they have.. i was just wondering if there was something i didnt know
I use it to make reds or pinks pop. Its also great under some difficult purpley colours (like tish said, beauty marked). It's an incredibly intense red, so it works really well. A little goes a long way.
Imo, paints are no the best base around, but out of all the bases i know, this is the best red.
I pretty much use Flammable under anything that I want to give more of a "red" pop. And it isn't a super bright red anyways, it's more of a darkened red, so the "sickly" look isn't as pronounced.
