Face coloring...Help please!!!!

[felicityprincess04]

My PM Samantha is losing her face coloring. I've seen some people here on this board do "touch ups" and the result is gorgeous! So my question, where do you get the paint/whatever you use to do this? And how? Does anyone have instructions?

Thanks!!

Our PM Molly had almost no color at all. I used regular blush (Clinique Pink) on her. I carefully studied a Mattel doll to help with blush placement and then applied it with a cotton ball. It looks great! I used a Q-tip to apply a bit of pink lipstick to Molly's poor colorless lips. I occasionally touch up the lipstick, but the blush has remained. I know there are more professional ways, but this really seemed to work. It was easy and I knew if I messed up it wouldn't be such a bad thing. Hope this helps.

Thank you so much!

So, it really works? Does it stay on nice? I have a hard time believing that it does [img]graemlins/wonder.gif[/img] I just hate the thought of putting real blush and lipstick on my dolls, lol.

Thnx again~

The blush stays on nicely. It is very translucent and somewhat luminous. It looks great - every bit as nice as the dolls with good color. The lipstick wipes off without a problem if you don't like it. A bit will stay on - also very sheer. I just use a tiny dab and spread with a Q tip.

It's funny that you are a bit hesitant to put actual make-up on them. I was more concerned about the other ways to do it.
