Doll review: Barbie Looks model 2 (curvy)

Hello and welcome to the first doll review of 2022. I haven't done a doll review in over a year, when I reviewed the BMR redhead guy , back in February 2021, so it was really about time.

The line seems to pay homage to the Barbie Basics line from 2009, but with the addition of the made to move body and new face sculpts. Later that year, 3 new dolls have cme out. These dolls original retail price is 20USD, which is a fair price

So, to see if I could get some inspiration, I tried to go "back to basics" and take some photos with just some colorful cardstock and a doll. This is how I started taking photos, so I thought this could help me get inspired.  I really didn't put much thought into it, just some bright colors and a doll.  Once I started taking photos with the white and pink background, I started getting ideas for other color combinations. For the second combo
