Doll Maintenance and Safety
Doll Maintenance and Safety
Also, baby oil stinks! I really don't like the smell of it. Can we just use Vaseline or some kind of body lotion like Olay to keep the doll hydrated? Is there any alternatives to baby oil? It is recommended that we hydrate it once a month, but would every two months be fine?
When applying makeup, it was recommended to use matte based makeup. How about the eyebrows? Would any brow pencil work? Do any of you have any brand names and products that you can recommend for both the makeup and brows?

Frequency of oil usage can depend on what kind of climate you're in. I live in a dry climate so once a month seems to be fine.

It is recommended that it be used only on thin sections that are showing signs of stress i.e. cracking around finger areas
The head is usually not subject to stress unless you are into serious oral activity
The head is not a solid lump but more of a skin molded around a fiberglass skull and IMO not to be oiled but a gentle clean with neutral ph soap
There have been posts from other owners with a similar dislike of baby oil smell and similarly baby powder does not appeal to everyone
Pretty confident they will add to this thread
