Care

• DO NOT alow children under age 12 to play with this doll unsupervised. It is an art object and a collector's item, handmade with care, and easily damaged, especially the face paint.
• Always wash your hands before touching the doll. Nail polish could stain the makeup, and we recommend you use gloves if wearing nail polish to handle your doll.
• Avoid touching the doll's face as you might damage the makeup.
• When not playing with your doll, keep her in her original box, or in a dry place without direct sunlight. Even though I use UV resistant varnish, direct sunlight could cause the doll's face makeup to fade.
