100 colours is available in 59ml bottles
Excellent coverage, a satin finish and high levels of artist-quality pigment
Ergonomic bottle
Invented in 1955, Liquitex Professional Soft Body Acrylic was the world’s first water-based artist acrylic. Its low-viscosity, flowing formula provides excellent coverage, a smooth satin finish, and high levels of artist-quality pigment for archival brilliance. Perfect for fine detail, large-scale wall art, glazing, pouring, or printing on a wide range of surfaces, this versatile acrylic paint is a favourite among artists.
Liquitex Soft Body Acrylic now comes in an ergonomic, artist-designed bottle to ensure ease of use and prevent waste. Available in a full range of 100 colours in 59ml bottles, with Titanium White offered in larger sizes.
So what’s the difference between Heavy and Soft Body?
Unlike Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylics, Soft Body is not a diluted version. While both paints share the same high pigment load and compatible binders, Soft Body’s low-viscosity formula allows for more fluid applications. Thinning Heavy Body with water or medium compromises the intensity, performance, and stability, making Soft Body the ideal choice when you need flowing, even coverage.

Write a reviewI was pleased they’d changed packaging because the tubes get all leaky round the top and I liked the liquitex muted colour range packaging. But this new packaging doesn’t solve the leaky top problem. Only if you always keep them upright do their tops remain clean but I carry my paints between studios which means they are often carried upside down or horizontally so the nozzle leaks (but not beyond the edges of the top) so when you open it, it’s covered in paint. I suppose there’s not much as much wastage though as before. The nozzle does mean you can control how much you squeeze out, which is an improvement. So ok but not perfect. (Paint still brilliant)
I love the paint, it’s easy to use, colours are vibrant, and dries nicely. But the bottles are a pain.... finding it really difficult to control how much paint comes out, much prefer the older squeezy tubes for both heavy body and soft body paint.
I am so glad they came back to bottles, too much wastage with the tubes. I get very little leakage with them although they are all thrown in my basket when travelling and the nozzle is perfect for me for getting tiny amounts when needed. Tubes were always annoying
