I received the doll quickly after ordering. I was so excited to get it, I opened it immediately and was very impressed! The clothes are great quality! I got the makeup option and I'm so glad I did. The lip gloss is actually shiny! Her lashes are real. Her eyes can be changed out to be blue, green, or brown. You can even move the eyes to have her look in different directions. I had so much fun dressing her and taking pictures of her. I can't wait to see my daughter's face when she unwraps her on her birthday. Read more

First, the face paint is wonderful. Absolutely beautifully done. In person she looks exactly like the official pics. I got the "handmade makeup plus," and mine came with both the blue eyes, and a pair that were green on one side and brown on the other. Not sure if all the "makeup plus" dolls come with the extra eyes, or if that was just an extra they put in. I did change her eyes to the green ones, as you can see in my pictures. The wig is a fairly good quality and fits great, with an elastic head cap. It's not quite white ... it's very faintly pastel. Seems to be a mix of white hairs with very pale pink. I found the laces on the back of the dress a little difficult to lace up, but that is my only complaint. She came with so many extras, and the costume was nicely sewn and lovely. Also, the company included a rubbery wig cap (which I didn't need), a birth certificate for the doll, a sponge (Mr. Clean Magic Eraser?), and a color pamphlet that shows how to change the eyes, and other details. She comes with underwear and a short tulle petticoat as well as the costume itself. I found it easy to change the eyes, which was really nice. Her wig size is pretty much exactly 9", so most 8-9" wigs will fit unless they run small. She uses full round eyes. I think the size is 14mm based on Vleyan Store's eye listing, but I haven't checked it. Very pleased with my purchase. Read more

This doll is adorable, it came with three sets of eyes, instructions, the set of clothes and the wig is so cute. Worth the buy but if the makers read these I would have also liked if the legs had one more joint each for rotation after the hip. Even then this doll would be a great gift for a young one. You will need a crochet hook to get the ribbon for the dress on so you don’t damage the clothes and remember lace from top to bottom on corset backs. Great buy might get another. Read more

First, the faceup is INCREDIBLE. I wanted to put that upfront because it was the thing I was most worried about when ordering this doll. Since this was intended for macro photography, I was hoping it would be suitable, and it definitely exceeded my expectations. Second, I'd probably give the flexibility of this doll a 7.5/10. While it uses ball joints for the shoulders, hips, and wrists, it uses linear double-joints for the elbows and knees. It is not a typical strung BJD, but at this price point, I wouldn't have expected it to be. The joints are stiff enough to hold poses, and if you're careful, it can actually stand on its own without support in certain poses. On that note, I did want to point out a couple of issues I had with this doll, but it's very important to point out that their customer service was OUTSTANDING and everything is on its way to being resolved. Firstly, the torso joint (which allows for rotation, not bending) was very stiff, and it seemed like maybe some adhesive had made its way into the joint. I was able to gently work the upper torso left and right to eventually loosen it up. Secondly, when attempting to position the doll in a sitting position, the fixture that the legs are connected to completely detached from the inside of the hips/waist, so the whole assembly fell out. If this happens, it's suggested that you use some adhesive to fix it (I've included a photo of where they suggested it be glued). I have not done this yet as I'm afraid of getting glue on the doll, so I'm trying to figure out how I can protect the rest of the doll while doing it. This fix makes sense as this joint is not intended to be a movable joint, I just really don't want to make a mess of the pristine skin! I may end up trying to use some very thin double-sided tape, it just seems a little difficult because the tolerances are TIGHT (which is a really good thing!) Lastly, I wanted to talk about the clothes, because WOW, they just BLEW ME AWAY! I did end up accidentally detaching the small black bows on the sleeves, but that was me being rough with it and breaking the delicate threads, but this was easily remedied by hand-sewing them back on. Other than that, the clothes were FLAWLESS and BEAUTIFUL! I can't get over how good the entire doll looks put together, and I would definitely buy more from this seller. If you're on the fence about this, then I would say just do it, because the value-to-price ratio is HUGE and the only regret I have is not buying it sooner! Read more
