Are there studies on the long-term health effects of TPE?

I am not disrespectful, I just want to know if anyone has a deeper understanding of TPE materials in general.

Re: What type of clothing can safely store dolls?

If you plan to stand or lie on a memory foam mattress or bed for a while with your new gal, these are very convenient things. Athena wore the cotton jumpsuit I bought from Amazon. She wore it for a few weeks, but if needed, it would be fine for a few months, but usually all my girls wear normal clot...

Re: Is the fastest and safest way to dust dolls?

Regarding the best doll paint on the planet, it is Ecotools face and body sculpting brush, part number 1255. The bristles are very soft and feel like the softest feathers are touching your skin. The bad thing is that they (for some reason) have stopped making brushes, but you can still find them on ...

Re: How to redo the eyebrows?

Well, I never need to remake them from scratch, but I used the eyebrow pencil in the makeup kit I bought. If a part of the forehead is left, it is difficult to figure out the shape of the rest. I just picked it up from the remaining edges of my eyebrows and did some short, gentle movements...almost ...

Re: Is it difficult to replace a wig?

When first arriving at the doll, some people use baby oil to clean it. About a month after receiving her, I did this to my first doll and the boy drew a lot of things from her. Please keep in mind that in the previous weeks, I used soap and water to clean it several times. Having said that, if you a...

Super glue is very good, only need a small amount of use, no matter what technique you use to apply it, don't be dazzled! Mess!

Re: What is the best arm position for the arm to bear weight?

It is my concern, which is why I haven't tried mine in that position (hug or other means).
It will be interesting to hear people's thoughts and suggestions on this

Can someone guide me in the right optional direction?

Due to the price tag, I will most likely give up the quest to buy one of these beauties. I am partially disabled and have a fixed income. If I spend $1,500, my savings will be spent. Why is it difficult to find one at a price of $500 or even $700? She doesn't have to be so perfect. No matter how rea...

Re: Is this just the type of doll (vendor)? Does it smell bad?

Arthur is absolutely correct. The early days of TPE were a stinky and greasy formula, but it has been improved a lot. Unless you buy a lower quality doll. It is in this case that tpe will stink and leak the remaining lives. Most of the smell of my wm140 disappeared within a few days and almost disap...

Re: What are the advantages of TPE over silicone?

What are the advantages of TPE over silicone? TPE is a cheaper material for manufacturers than *platinum*silicone. Therefore, why do so many manufacturers make TPE dolls that are cheaper than silicone dolls? This is just a matter of material cost. Do you know why it is called platinum silicon? Beca...
