Kit's Arrived--HELP!!

[LindaL]

Hi all -

My ebay $50 Kit arrived yesterday, and I finally got to open the box this morning (girls were out of school yesterday--school holiday for teacher conferences).

She was represented as well played with, which she is! But I need help with a few things.

It looks like someone put glittery makeup (?) on her face. What should I try to remove this? It looks like her face glows with glitter! Mr Clean Magic Eraser? I'd hate to make it worse, when I'm not sure what it is.

Someone also did something to her freckles. Could someone post a close up of Kit's face for me, so I can see what is supposed to be her freckle pattern and what isn't?

And on the back of her wig, the hair is extremely thin when you lift up the outside back top layer. Is this the way Kit's hair is--or is she missing some? (She looks fine from the back--it's just when you lift up that top layer, the rest is practically just the wig cap.

I might have my work cut out for me on this one! But I love a fix up challenge! And my soon to be five year old will love her nonetheless!

Linda, congrats on Kit!

I took a close look at my Kit's wig after reading your post. She has hair on every layer of the wig cap, all around. For a short-haired doll, she actually has a lot of hair.

Here is the closet picture I have online right now. I can try to take an even closer one if you'd like. The second link is a close-up of Linsdey. Their freckles are the same.

I bought a Bitty Baby once that came coated in the fine glitter you speak off. She sparkled.It was a very fine sparkle like you see in cosmetics.
Magic Eraser took it right off.I had to use a q-tip around the eyes, to get in good and close, but she came clean and perfect.

If you look around, Ashley's Mom has a Kit she rewigged, she looks PERFECT.She found a terrific Kit wig.

Here is a close up of Kit's freckles.HTH. http://www.imagestation.com/album/pi...20928043&idx=8

Good Luck! We can't wait to see her all prettied up!
