Caring for your toys keeps them safe, hygienic, and long-lasting. Follow this guide for simple, effective routines before and after play.
Quick Care Routine

- After use: Wash again. Pay attention to textured areas and seams.
- Dry: Pat dry with a clean, lint-free towel; air-dry fully before storing.
- Store: Place in a clean pouch away from dust, sunlight, and excessive heat.
Tip: If youâre moving between partners or orifices, use a new condom each time.
Cleaning by Material
Always check the productâs instructions first; if in doubt, use the gentlest method below.
- Silicone (non-porous): Wash with warm water + mild soap. For deep clean (non-electronic only), you can boil for 3â5 minutes or soak in a 10% bleach solution (1 part bleach, 9 parts water), then rinse thoroughly.
- ABS Plastic / Hard Plastic: Wash with warm soapy water or toy cleaner; avoid boiling. Wipe battery compartments carefully.
- Stainless Steel (non-porous): Wash with warm soapy water; may be boiled (non-electronic) or disinfected with 70% isopropyl alcohol; rinse well.
- Glass (borosilicate, non-porous): Wash with warm soapy water; can be boiled (non-electronic). Inspect for chips before each use.
- TPR/TPE, Jelly, Rubber (porous): Wash with warm soapy water. Use condoms if sharing or for anal play. Do not boil.
- Latex: Wash gently with mild soap; air-dry away from heat/sun. Avoid oils if you use latex condoms elsewhere.
- Leather (e.g., harness parts): Wipe with a barely damp cloth; condition occasionally. Keep dry and never soak.
Note: Never submerge toys with motors, batteries, or charging ports unless labeled as water-proof.
Lubricant Compatibility
Choose a lube thatâs comfortable and material-safe.
| Material | Water-based | Silicone-based | Oil-based |
|---|---|---|---|
| Silicone | â Safe | â ď¸ Generally avoid (can degrade surface) | â ď¸ Can stain; not condom-safe |
| ABS / Hard Plastic | â Safe | â Usually safe | â ď¸ Can stain; not condom-safe |
| Glass / Steel | â Safe | â Safe | â ď¸ Can stain; not condom-safe |
| TPR/TPE / Jelly / Rubber | â Safe | â ď¸ Often not recommended | â ď¸ Can degrade; not condom-safe |
| Latex (external surfaces) | â Safe | â Generally safe | â Not safe with latex condoms |
Rule of thumb: Water-based lubes are the most universally compatible.
Storage & Protection
- Store each toy in its own pouch to avoid material reactions and dust.
- Keep away from direct sunlight, extreme heat, and humidity.
- Ensure toys are completely dry before storing to prevent odor or mildew.
- For travel, lock devices (if available) and use discreet, hard-sided cases when needed.
Charging & Battery Care
- Use the original charging cable. Do not charge near water or on soft bedding.
- Charge fully before first use; top up every 2â3 months if stored long-term.
- Wipe ports dry before charging; ensure magnetic pins are clean.
Waterproof Ratings
- Water-resistant / Splash-proof: Safe for quick rinses; do not submerge.
- Waterproof: Can be submerged for cleaning; avoid charging while wet.
- Always check the product page or manual for the exact rating before use in the bath/shower.
Sharing & Safety
