The body of your sex doll is typically made from either silicone or TPE (thermoplastic elastomer). Both materials have unique characteristics, but they require similar care to maintain their lifelike feel and appearance. Here’s how to properly care for your sex doll’s body, regardless of whether it’s made of silicone or TPE.
Cleaning and Hygiene:
After every use, it’s essential to clean your sex doll’s body thoroughly. Both silicone and TPE can absorb oils, dust, and other particles, which can degrade the material over time. Use warm water and a gentle, non-abrasive soap to wash the doll. Avoid submerging the doll fully in water, especially if it has internal features that shouldn’t get wet. A soft cloth or sponge is ideal for cleaning, while soft-bristled brushes can help clean the harder-to-reach areas.
Drying:
Both silicone and TPE are prone to mold and mildew if left damp. After cleaning, dry your doll’s body carefully with a soft towel, paying extra attention to areas that tend to retain moisture, such as joints, fingers, and toes. Leave the doll to air dry in a well-ventilated area to ensure all moisture is evaporated. A fan can help speed up the drying process, but never use direct heat sources, as they can damage the material.
Powdering:
Once dry, lightly dust your doll’s body with baby powder or a specialized doll powder. This helps to prevent stickiness and keeps the material soft and smooth, restoring its realistic feel. Avoid using excessive powder, as it can accumulate and make the skin look dull.
Avoiding Damage:
Keep your doll’s body free from sharp objects and rough surfaces, which could puncture or tear the material. Store the doll in a safe environment, avoiding excessive heat, cold, or direct sunlight, which can cause the material to degrade over time. Always handle the doll gently, especially at the joints, to avoid placing unnecessary stress on the TPE or silicone.
By following these simple maintenance steps, you can keep your sex doll’s body looking lifelike and feeling soft for years.
