Hygiene is the utter most important aspect of using adult toys on either yourself or with a partner!
So you’ve just bought yourself a new toy and boy it wasn’t cheap, obviously you want to care for it and yourself?
Did you know without the right care and use, adult toys can become a health hazard and can start to degrade.
Why spend your pretty pennies on something that you’re not going to look after properly?
Now don’t be alarmed, caring and cleaning your toy is as easy as 1,2,3!
First lets figure out what material your new little friend is made out of?
Silicone, jelly, glass, metal or plastic?
The material is how we determine what lubrication we can use and the correct way to clean the toy.
- Silicone
Use only water-based lubes
Use a toy cleaner such as the Lelo- Premium cleaning spray for a quick and easy clean up.
Dont have a toy cleaner on hand? No problem.
Just use a mild soap and rinse off completely with water. - Jelly/PVCUse only water-based lubes
Same as the silicone either use a toy cleaner or mild soap and water - Glass/Metal
Use any lube you please
Glass and metal are incredibly hygienic and easy to keep clean and care for.
mild soap, toy cleaner, some people even use their dish washer ( I don’t recommend this)
Why should I clean my toys before and after each use?
Vaginas and booty’s deserve respect, don’t just go shoving unclean items up there willy-nilly.
One common causes of Thrush is dirty toys, keep them clean to prevent any nasty UTI’s.
Keeping your toys clean is also a great way to pro-long its life, most toy cleaners work as a “Conditioner” for toys so it will keep the material supple and re-frame from degrading and becoming stick or tacky.
Lets talk about storage, Storing a toy can be a pain in the backside especially if you have children around who like rummaging through your bedroom draws.
Storage sex toy chest
I recommend purchasing a toy chest, a toy chest is a small box with either a lock or code to be able to enter it. It’s a great way to keep away unwanted hands and to keep your toys away from direct sunlight, dust and other germs floating around.
Some people rather have their favorite toy in their bedside table but just think about all the other products also placed in that draw?
Not really Hygienic…
Toys should be kept away from direct sunlight and kept somewhere cool, clean and dark.
