Lip Gloss, Cleaning, Eyebrows & etc. FAQs & please add! :)

Post by ChaseroftheSun »

So my BoyToy doll will be arriving hopefully by the end of this week!! So excited!!:
** I would love your opinions on some of these things I plan to buy: I realize some of these question have already been covered in previous posts & so if even you could direct me to some that might be helpful & relevant I would appreciate that too!
1. Lip Gloss: I've read here in some posts that all make-up should be "Powder-based" however I would like my doll to wear lip gloss occasionally & I found this one (below) that seems to have excellent reviews but it contains some "(Sunflower) Seed Oil" Plus I don't want to die of cancer from chemicals if I end up doing some kissing LOL! What are your thoughts?

2. Lots of posts on cleaning the inserts... My doll's Insert will be made from silicone & from what I've read on here sounds like the best way is anti-bacterial soap & then a rinse with isopropyl alcohol. However should I go with the 70% Rubbing or the stronger 90%? What are your thoughts?
3. Oven Mitts to help prevent those finger pokes. I plan on modifying a pair by adding some Velcro for easy in & out of her hands. Do some of you use some?
4. Baby Powder: I've read that too much Talc powder can be bad for a person's lungs & heard good reviews of "Johnson's Corn starch Baby powder" that even has a not bad scent. I don't like that pure baby powder scent & wondered what some of you use?
5. In the future I was thinking of trying this: "Wunderbrow Perfect Eyebrows" As it's a semi-permanant way of making the eye brows look thicker as opposed to trying to glue some on. Has anyone tried this?
6. I've read here that some have had success with simply using a hair-conditioner or Fabric Softener" as a wig detangler or would you suggest going directly to a "Wig-Detangler" product?
7. I was wondering where to buy the best quality but least expensive wigs. (?) Any suggestions? I was thinking of using this company:

the good news is boytoy dolls come with beautiful glossed lips, pretty much no matter which shade of lip color you've chosen!

Use cornstarch on your doll.
She can wear a large thick cotton socks on her hands. If you sleep with her put her mitted hands palm down in her lap. This will prevent damage.
The newer silicone is super soft, so no abrasive wash clothes. A terrycloth or similar will be good for her to get washed with.
Always bridal carry your doll,or pick her up with her facing you. And her legs around your waist.
The empty orchestra still plays.

When I saw the pics of her in her For Sale thread I said "She's beautiful!"

I hope to see you really enchanted.

Best wishes
