Sex Doll Cleaning Guide

What Is a Sex Doll?

A sex doll is an adult toy that is designed to imitate the shape and size of an actual body and is intended to be used for sex. Many sex toys are realistically shaped, especially in the genital area. However, most sex dolls include additional parts of the body, like the torso, buttocks, breasts, and, in some cases, the entire body.

How to Clean a Sex Doll?

It is relatively easy to clean a sex doll, but it sometimes can be a tedious task, as some sex dolls have a more specific shape and intricate details that need special attention. So, we share the steps you need to take when cleaning a sex doll:

• Take the doll apart – if possible, disassemble the sex doll, removing the detachable parts. We are, of course, talking about the complex, lifelike realistic dolls that have removable inserts instead of a vagina, anus, and sometimes a mouth. If you are using a blow-up sex doll, then you skip this step.
• Rinse with water and soap – thoroughly rinse the sex doll with warm water and mild soap. We recommend you use a specialized sex toy cleaner that has a balanced formula and is free from bleach, alcohol, and harsh chemicals that can damage the surface of your sex doll. Gently scrub all the surfaces that have come into contact with bodily fluids or lube. Also, if the doll does not have removable orifices, you need to be extra diligent when cleaning the orifices and rinsing everything thoroughly. Use a gentle brush to get into all the nooks; most often, the orifices have textured surfaces that need extra care and attention.
• Wash the removable inserts – as we noted, if your sex doll has removable inserts, you need to carefully rinse everything, ensuring all the lube and residue are washed away. Because most of the time, these parts of the sex doll are textured, you need to be extra diligent and use a towel or a soft brush to remove all lube and other residue.
• Use a nozzle to clean the inside of the orifices – for more effective cleaning, we recommend you use a sex doll cleaning kit. It comes with a spray nozzle, similar to an anal douche nozzle, that allows you to gently rinse the residue. For this step, we advise you to use warm water and never use hot water, as too hot water can damage the surface of the toy. Add a small amount of sex toy cleaner to the solution to better rinse the inside.

• Pat it dry – gently pat your sex doll with a lint-free towel or a microfiber cloth to remove the largest part of the liquid. We recommend you use a smaller lint-free towel to absorb as much water from the orifices as possible; you can also take a piece of kitchen paper roll, roll it up, and tuck it inside to remove as much of the moisture as possible.
• Sprinkle renewal powder – if your sex doll is made from TPE/TPR blends, which are known under the brand names Ultraskyn, Cyberskin, or FantaFlesh, then you will need to sprinkle some renewal powder to prevent the surfaces from becoming sticky. You can also do this with a light dusting of cornstarch, as it will help the material retain its softness and elasticity. We advise you to stay away from talcum/baby powder, as these contain talc and fragrances that can damage the surface.
• Inspect for damage – we recommend you do a thorough inspection of your sex doll and check for wear, tears, and potential damage. If you notice slight problems, you can get a repair kit and fix them with ease.
• Store – always store your sex doll in a dry, cool place, away from heat, humidity, and direct sunlight. The sunlight’s UV rays are detrimental to the sex doll and lead to degradation of the materials, so keeping it covered is a must. If your sex doll is a full-size model, then you can store it in a closet, a box under the bed, or simply keep it on a chair in the corner of your bedroom. But make sure it is positioned in the proper position to avoid unnecessary stresses on the joints and the materials. Keep it covered, protecting it from dust and prying eyes. If you are using a blow-up doll, make sure you deflate it once it is fully dry and store it in its original box or a drawer, away from other sex toys, avoiding cross-contamination.

If you closely follow the steps to cleaning a sex doll, you ensure you’ll have a reliable sex doll that will serve you for years. Also, check out the manufacturer’s instructions for more details, as the different materials may require special cleaning steps.
