ah I see, so completely avoid? I'll dab the back/top but not face tho. Like lipstick can be oily for example, can smear like hell, considering its tpe... what a mess. Baby oil tends to get rid the lipstick well.Arthur1960 wrote:I avoid washing my gals heads, I use makeup brushes to keep dust off and if they look a little dirty I just use baby oil to freshen them up. Obviously that can take off makeup but it's easily reapplied once you get the hang of it.
I rarely oil mine, its like they don't really need it.
And thanks.

Occasionally I'll lightly dust with whatever's left over on the make-up brush after powdering the body, being careful to avoid the lashes, but that's about it. Don't use the oral feature, but every so often I do apply a thin film of Vaseline inside just to keep it from drying out.
This is very close to what i do as well
Once in a while for a deep cleanse i'll put some baby oil in a small soft sponge square (cut for this purpose like a makeup remover pad) and just gently remove all the makeup/dust/powder from her face. The oiled sponge piece really picks everything up wonderfully. Then i'll wipe the remaining oil off with a damp soft cloth, that way she only gets to absorb very minimal amounts of oil.
Let dry for about 10 minutes, then you can have your fun powdering and doing her makeup again. Boom, like new!
Alternatively you can be careful not to remove her makeup, but it is something i enjoy doing anyway
