I'm really excited! I found a Samantha doll at a garage sale yesterday for $10. She is PM and has great hair but the rest of her is a disaster. TONS of nail polish on the vinyl, light stains on the body. Luckily no chew marks, and the only lose limb is a leg. I can fix the leg and get the stains out of the body, but I had to remove her face make-up (cheeks and lips) in order to get off all the nail polish which was all over her face/lips. I now need to repaint the eyelids, lips, and cheeks. If I am going to do so much repainting and restoring work on her, I'd really like to customize her. This is something I've wanted to do for a while, but so far, I hadn't found a doll cheap enough that was also in bad enough shape to justify customizing.

I am wondering if anyone has any tips on what paint brands/colors to use for lids, lips, and cheeks? I'd also like to know if anyone has any tips on adding freckles they would care to share?

Thanks guys!
