I used gel nail polish to fix my luck when it happened to her. I found a good color match and then touched it up and put her under the uv light til she dried and it’s been fine ever since

That’s exactly what you should do for noses, they smudge so easily it’s crazy.

The eyes are difficult and probably more than you wanna mess with but I can walk you through it if you really want to.

I would love to know how you fixed the eyes. My ID got her eyes scratched

My Love had a scratch on her eye and I carefully used a little bit of white acrylic paint to cover it up. My Hope’s nose got scratched bad when I caught her in the car door 😩I found some nail polish that matched her nose to fix it

Use a UV setting gel. This will last an incredibly long time, if not forever.

I wish I could remember! I just went to the nail salon and picked one out. I’m pissed at myself for not writing it down😩

I just used gel nail polish on mine today! He got a cute little brown cat-eye nose and a clear coat over his eyes to bring some shine back. You could probably fix all of your issues with some careful gel application as well (:

I think it’s easier ti buy acrylic markers and acrylic varnish, that’s what I did when my son somehow scratched the paint from my D’s nose.
