Applying makeup to a sex doll not only enhances its realism but also adds a fun personal touch. Tuttavia, not all makeup products are safe for use on dolls. Using the wrong products can cause staining or even damage to the doll’s material. Therefore it’s essential to understand which makeup is suitable for different doll materials.
Choosing the Right Makeup Based on Doll Material
Most sex dolls are made from either TPE (Elastomero termoplastico) O silicone. These materials have different absorption rates and chemical sensitivities, which affect how makeup behaves on their surfaces.
Bambole in TPE

- Easily absorbs oils and pigments.
- Sensitive to harsh chemicals and oil based products.
Recommended Makeup:
- Matte powder eyeshadows and blushes
- Water-based eyebrow and eyeliner pencils
- Food-grade lip balms or powder based lip colors
- Baby powder for setting makeup
What to Avoid:
- Oil-based foundations and concealers
- Waterproof lipsticks and mascaras
- Nail polish or acetone-based removers
- Cream or heavy makeup products
Bambole in silicone
