Barbara Smolińska is a Polish artist.[1]

Smolińska began working in the world of music and cosmetic treatments.[2] In 2013, she started collecting hyperrealistic dolls and later decided to start a hyperrealistic baby manufacturing company called Reborn Sugar Babies. These dolls have therapeutic benefits for their customers. Film studios,[3] childbirth education schools, emergency rooms, nursing schools and doll collectors have purchased them.[4] She argues that these dolls help process miscarriages and miscarriages, as well as anxiety, depression, and fertility problems.[2][5] Prices of these dolls are worth from hundreds to thousands of dollars.[6]

In December 2021, she was included in the list of BBC's 100 Women.[7][8]
