Cleaning
Maintaining pristine hygiene is essential for pleasure and safety. Our Sex Toy Cleaning Essentials page offers expert guidance to help you care for your favorite accessories properly – before and after each use
.
Start with non-porous toys (silicone, glass, stainless steel): use warm water and mild, unscented soap, rinse thoroughly, and air dry. Boil glass or metal toys (without electronics) for 3–5 minutes or use a dishwasher’s top rack for sterilization. For motorized devices, avoid boiling – instead, clean surface-only with a damp cloth and gentle soap, then dry .
Porous materials like rubber or jelly require extra care: wash gently with warm water and soap, rinse well, and allow to fully air dry — storing separately to prevent material breakdown and bacterial growth .
Specialist toy cleaners (sprays or wipes) offer alcohol-free, antibacterial protection ideal for sensitive fabrics and materials. For the most stringent hygiene, UV-C sanitizers (e.g., UVee systems) provide additional disinfection—especially useful when sharing toys.
Finally, store all toys in a cool, dry place—separate from one another—and always check for cracks or damage before use. Proper care prolongs the life of your toys and safeguards your wellbeing.
