I'm sure he did enjoy his work as a make-up artist because he truly loved women -- all women; and they loved him. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-72027936666189432562011-11-27T07:26:01.762-06:002011-11-27T07:26:01.762-06:00What a beautiful tribute to your brother.

Your...Thanks so much for your kind words, D7ana. <br /><br />Your dad must have been extremely handsome! <br /><br />It is wonderful that we can use our dolls to remind us of loved ones that have passed on. I have other dolls in my collection that remind me of family and friends who are no longer here. <br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-38821144250468463482011-11-09T19:16:22.056-06:002011-11-09T19:16:22.056-06:00Debbie, thanks for sharing your stories about your...Debbie, thanks for sharing your stories about your brother. My condolences for your loss. But I think you still "have" and "hold" your brother in your heart and in your memories. After time has passed of course. Recent grief feels too raw to consider any kind of consolation or bearing.<br /><br />Two of my dolls remind me of my Dad - Hasbro's Lando Calrissian and Mattel's Happy Family AA Grandfather. I gave them some of his views and his statements. I like how your doll keeps some of your brother vibrant for you - my guess, that is. <br /><br />And you have a lovely one of a kind doll now.D7anahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15497306465109590188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-26842099649452646872011-11-08T09:55:58.349-06:002011-11-08T09:55:58.349-06:00Tammy has makeup on her face and arms only; her bo...<a href="http://blackdollcollecting.blogspot.com/2010/10/tammy-re-makeover-story.html" rel="nofollow">Tammy</a> has makeup on her face and arms only; her body is painted and sealed with clear varnish.<br /><br />I suppose the makeup can be sealed with clear matte varnish, but I did not have matte on hand.<br /><br />dbgBlack Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-91207712217877389152011-11-08T09:51:54.661-06:002011-11-08T09:51:54.661-06:00Limbe Dolls and Vanessa thanks for your comments.
...Limbe Dolls and Vanessa thanks for your comments.<br /><br />V - sorry for the tears this caused. I shed some as I typed it.<br /><br />The makeup stays on because you don't touch the made up area. <br />:-) I only use it on dolls that I have no plans to manipulate, but after it is applied and allowed to remain on, after a couple of days of air drying, it won't rub off with gentle touching. <br /><br />I used his makeup on <a href="http://blackdollcollecting.blogspot.com/2010/10/tammy-re-makeover-story.html" rel="nofollow">Tammy</a>. I just didn't share the source of the makeup in Tammy's post.Black Doll Enthusiasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07534871309015210903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6047557606653771556.post-64854126860372818092011-11-08T09:29:09.692-06:002011-11-08T09:29:09.692-06:00Too early in the morn to be crying.

Of course the passing of cancer story, my second of the morning, wasn't much help either. So sorry for your loss. <br /><br />Love the makeup transformation.

My own brother is so important in my life I can't imagine what it would be like to lose him. <br /><br />I also appreciate the tips on "body blushing." I have a few dolls I would like to make-over.limbe dollshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01704328250988686700noreply@blogger.com
