Yes you should.. the unglazed ceramic is not good for you, I belive it's a long the lines of one of the cancer causing.
Ceramic crawling is a glaze defect that occurs when the glaze pulls away from the surface of the ceramic during firing, leaving patches where the glaze did not adhere. This can happen due to poor glaze application, dust or oil contamination on the surface, or incompatible materials.
You should put glaze on polymer clay after baking and cooling it completely. The glaze adds a shiny or matte finish to your polymer clay creations and helps protect them from wear and tear. Apply the glaze using a soft brush or sponge in thin, even coats for best results.
It depends. Does she look rough under the glaze? If so she is ceramic

Yes, but leave the fat (that's under the skin). Answer Using a sharp knife, cut cross-hatches into the skin and fat layers before baking. The glaze goes on during the last half hour. Most of the fat will have melted away by then.
Sealer is applied on top of the glaze & does not penetrate the glass Glaze, so over time & with use & cleaning it will wear off. so YES!
