How often do I need to powder my doll?

Post by Real 56 »

Hi, just wondering how often to powder my TPE doll, unfortunately she is not being used a lot at the moment, not enough hours in the day, so she stands, admittedly covered in a white bed sheet. I just wasn't sure when to powder her. Is it only after cleaning, or once a week or what?. I'd be grateful for any advice

Powdering really only needs to be done when she's not feeling as silky smooth as you like. Usually after a good cleaning or oil wipe down she'll be super tacky and really need it. Otherwise, only when you wish she was a tad smoother feeling.

Basically, after cleaning or whenever she feels tacky and less smooth. She should also be completely dry before powdering. Don't overdo it though, a light dusting is all it takes.
