Silicone Reborn Doll Care Guide: Keep Your Baby Looking Lifelike
A little routine care keeps a silicone reborn doll looking soft and lifelike for years.
Handling
Always support the head and neck, and hold the doll as you would a newborn. Avoid pulling on limbs and pressing hard on the face, eyes or painted details.
Storage
Store in a cool, clean, dry place. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, heaters and hot cars, which can affect the finish. Lay the doll on a soft, clean surface rather than on newsprint, coloured leather or anything that could transfer ink or dye.
Cleaning
For light surface dust, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use harsh cleaners, alcohol or solvents. If you think a doll needs more than light cleaning, ask the seller before trying anything — methods differ between dolls.
Clothing and accessories
Choose clean, soft, colour-fast fabrics. New or dark clothing should be washed first, as dye can transfer. See the clothing guide.
Not a toy
Reborn dolls are collectibles and are not intended for children's play. Our terms state that they are not suitable for children under 14.
