Smell

I have been having some difficulty getting use to the TPE smell. It has become a turn off for me and I am wondering how long it will last on the dolls.

Hi snake, Have you gave her a bath yet ?

Also you can use either perfume or ladies deodorant like Impulse which should help untill the smell fades. But a combination of both "bath and body spray" should do the trick.

maybe keep her out (if possible) so the smell can dissapate more easily?

not a TPE doll, but I ordered a new mannequin years ago, and the chemical 'glassfiber' smell was just too much; thru the day I had to keep her in the bathroom which has mechanical ventilation. The smell disappeared over time, but it took a while ...

It took about 2 -3 weeks to fade. At 3 months its totally gone for me. But I also powder with cornstarch and a hint of perfume

Where do you spray on the perfume? Does it cause a discoloration to the material?

It is the same for Sabrina and Violet, i have had Sabrina for about a month now and I just dont want to go near her because of the smell. Same with Violet but she is only a week old.

Give them a bath as it was suggested... the smell will dissipate over time but in the mean time you can spray perfume on them but test first on an inconspicuous spot or if you are unsure you can always spray it onto the clothing... Good luck...

I had a similar issue with a sex toy made from TPE. I washed it several times and dried completely, then add corn starch or talc. I was able to put the toy in a bag with a cloth damp with skin musk perfume which has a faily mild scent. For full size doll I would hang an umbrella from the ceiling over the dolls head and use a large plastic bag. Can be purchased from uline. Cover the umbrella with the bag to make a "tent" and store the doll at room
Temperature for a week. It worked for the sex toy, might take longer with a full size doll.
