She was a Goodwill find, and she had magenta nail polish on her fingers and toes. Yep...magenta. Nail polish remover got the bulk of it off with a lot of scrubbing, but it left deep pink stains in the vinyl that weren't as easy to get out. Benzoyl Peroxide acne cream worked its wonders to restore her hands and feet to her natural tan color.
The nail polish was actually a lot easier to get out than the simple red dots on her one arm. We got her in February and this week, in the end of May, the sun and Oxy FINALLY baked those marks out of the vinyl. It took three months of constant treatment! She also had some other stray marks, including some newspaper print that transferred onto her leg during shipping. Don't wrap your dolls in newspaper, folks!
Her hair was absolutely gorgeous to begin with, so a quick wash and condition with wig cleaner made it as good as new (and smell lovely too)! It's silky soft and has a cute side part. As a special bonus, her limbs were so tight they felt like brand-new...and any day that doesn't require a total limb restringing is a very good day, so that was a plus.
Once her extensive spa treatments were done, it was time to get all dolled up...so to speak. Some deeper lip coloring and blush were in order.
Isn't she lovely? I can just see her in a pink sundress and a flower crown!
Here, she's posing with another custom, JLY #44, or Amber.
Both will be available to adopt soon, so keep your eyes peeled!
