Morphology

dollface = doll + face (semi-transparent) = doll + face

The compound meaning ('doll' + 'face') is clear, but the sarcastic/pejorative pragmatic nuance (belittling someone as silly or superficial) is an attitudinal extension that may not be fully predictable from the parts.

Etymology

Dollface comes from the two words doll and face, and a useful image is a doll's pretty but plain or 'artificial' look. That's why the word can also be used in a sharp or sarcastic way to call someone silly or superficial.
