The resin within the same batch and even the same doll part might LOOK perfectly blended, but on aging and yellowing that turns out not to be the case.
These dolls are partly handmade, are cast by people and not machines, so there is going to be variation in them.
If you want something that is going to stay perfect forever, get one of the hand-cast porcelain BJDs. Porcelain never ages or yellows.

Low-temp hot glue is easy to use; squeeze a bit, smear with finger, move on to the next section... High temp NOT recommended, for injury to YOU!!! Low-temp won't burn you... it might sting a bit but the glue itself won't burn (the gun will though). You don't even have to take the doll apart, stretch the joint all the way open so the elastic is out of the way and go. It wears down over time, can be easily peeled off, then reapplied, and the glue is cheap!
Low-temp hot glue can also be used to make removable modifications like scarring, burning, etc. Completely reversible.
