We have talked many times about the sexualization of children through advertisements and the dolls they use in their games and the values we transmit to them.
Although from time to time there is a company that gets rid of those roles and simply makes toys for children, they remain the exception to the rule and the market is still full of unreal measures dolls or makeup boxes that have nothing to Envy those of professional makeup artists.

We can say that it shows us Real girls or women hiding the makeup of today's dolls.
Creating much more real dolls
Hale always wanted to be able to design her own dolls, she never liked those exaggeratedly painted dolls and with clothes that no girl would wear, she did not wear that small, nor did she have those eyes, much less those lips!

It seems incredible what can be done simply by applying a different makeup and dressing them with more real clothes. Personally, I don't like Brazz, which is the main model he uses for his creations. I thought it would be for being a man and father of boys, but after seeing the transformations of these artists I have realized that they are simply a "badly finished" product and that these more real dolls might even like my children.
