Tips for Sex Toy Maintenance

With the world of sex toys expanding on the daily, it's tough to keep up with how to care for your toys of different types, sizes, material, and function.

Can I wash my toys that aren't waterproof? What if I want to share my toys with my partner?

You spend your hard-earned money to perfect your sex toy collection so that it meets your maximum pleasure needs, so you want it to last as long as possible. We're here to help you protect your investments, no matter what kind, with a few tips on toy maintenance.

  1. Always use the recommended type of batteries for your sex toys. Don't ToyWashLarge.jpgskimp here. A good battery will make your toy function its best--for longer.
  2. Stick with a water-based lubricant when toys are involved in your play. Avoid silicone or oil-based lubricants. While these solutions are great for partner play, water-based works with any toy material.
  3. Only use fully waterproof toys in water environments. This one is a no-brainer...we hope. Your experience should be shocking--just of a different kind.
  4. Wash your adult toys with a sex toy cleaner or mild soap and water. Boiling is generally not recommended--especially for electronic toys. Using a toy cleaner ensures that your toy material is being properly cared for. We're all for exploration, but condoms are convenient when sharing your toys with partners or between vaginal and anal pleasure to avoid spreading bacteria. 
  5. Always store your beloved collectables in a mild, dry place wrapped in cloth and away from sunlight. Moisture, direct sunlight, and lengthy exposure to other sex toys can damage adult toys. Allowing toys to completely dry prior to storage prevents mold and mildew.

And remember, while we understand that you love your sext toys and all that they do for you, no toy lasts forever. Always toss your sex toy and start fresh with a new and improved model if their mechanical function no longer works, there are visible cracks, scratches, or tears, or battery corrosion occurs during storage.

Play safe--but enjoy your toys!
