I was recently asked how to remove dirty hand prints, smudges and dirt from the face and hands of an American Girl Doll. I have experimented with lots of things over the years to clean my dolls. Some of them worked well and some didn't work out so well. The one thing that worked better than any was baking soda and water. It removed the smudges with ease and because it isn't abrasive or contains harsh chemicals, it didn't damage the doll's face or hands. You want to apply a bit of pressure when you are cleaning the doll, but don't scrub too hard as to damage the paint on the face.
