I saw a post somewhere that mentioned you have to put Vaseline on your dolls. Areas that are stretched more often to avoid cracks. Is that once a month or daily? Also what type of Vaseline? The jelly? Or any lotion? Would you rub it in her holes as well to avoid tears? How much do I need to put on? How thick of a layer?

If you can not then please ask who ever you got your doll from to help you.

This thread has 25 pages, of the best doll care available, from experts and owners. Your subject is mention extensively. As a voice greater than I has mentioned, read the first 5 pages in their entirety, skim over the rest. If you do a Vaseline search, you'll come with many hits too.

I was reading the thread and I just wanted some clarification on what they mean by Vaseline. Vaseline is a brand with many different lotions. Do they mean just petroleum jelly? Or can I get any of their lotions (preferably their nice smelling ones)? thanks!!

Plain ol petroleum jelly, the unrefined yellowy stuff is best.
If you want to add a scent, you can add that to the powder, clothes and wigs.
