how to properly clean a realistic skin sex toy
I had decided to get my first sex toy a few weeks ago and I was so excited, finally being able to have the pleasure I had been yearning for! The excitement was short lived however when I had to learn how to clean it properly. After a quick Google search, I was totally bamboozled with all the different instructions and Penis Rings tips that were being thrown my way. It was then that I realized that most people go through the same frustrations when it comes to cleaning their sex toys and thought I should share my experiences with others.
Cleaning your sex toy can be a daunting task, but have no fear, it can be done with ease if you follow a few simple steps. The first thing you must do is to ensure that you are using the right products for the material that the toy is made from. If it is a realistic skin material, it is important to use specialized products rather than using soap and water which can be damaging to the delicate material. Generally, mild soap and warm water is the best choice to use as it is recommended to not use harsh chemicals on toys that can damage the material and cause infection.
The next essential step is to make sure that you thoroughly clean your toy between uses, focusing on all the nooks and crannies where fluids and bacteria can hide and breed. I prefer to use a cloth or antibacterial wipes along with a cleaning solution as this helps to ensure that all areas are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected eliminating any bacteria build up. Make sure to pay particular attention to areas such as seams, buttons, and other openings that the fluid can settle into and be sure to pay extra attention to details like the seams, as this is where most bacteria will form.
Once you have finished the cleaning process, it is important to ensure that your toy is properly dried before you put it away. If you store a wet toy, it is more likely that mould and bacteria will form and can be potentially dangerous for your health. My go to drying method is to use a lint free cloth and gently pat my toy dry, making sure that all areas are completely dry before putting it away.
When it comes to storing your toy, it is important to keep it in an area that is clean, cool, and dry. You don’t want the toy to get damp again as this could encourage bacteria to form. It is also a good idea to store your toys in a separate bag or container from the other toys that you may own. This helps to prevent any cross contamination and keeps them clean and bacteria free.
One last tip I have learnt is that occasionally it is also important to give your toys a deeper clean. I usually give them an extra clean after every few uses to make sure that they are properly disinfected and free of any bacteria. For a deep clean, I recommend filling a bowl with warm water and sex toys your chosen cleaning solution before submerging your toy. Left for around 10 minutes, this will give it an extra deep clean before removing and drying it.
Once you have followed these steps, you can be confident that your sex toy is squeaky clean and free of bacteria allowing you to enjoy it safely and worry free!
