Stopping lint

I just started working on silicone Felicity and I’m getting so frustrated with the amount of lint that sticks to her! I know silicone is a magnet for lint but I’ve found this room to be especially bad with things in the air. I’m able to brush it off my vinyl babies much easier than picking each piece off the silicone. Would getting something like an air purifier help decrease the amount of lint particles in the air?

I’ve never worked with silicone, but I’ve seen some people who create an entire space around it with plastic so less lint gets in. I also heard putting balloons on your workspace can help.

Welcome to the world of silicone! Just yet another reason why finished babies are not cheap! People have no idea what goes into making these.

If you rub the balloons on a carpet first they’ll attract lint like a magnet.
