Sex Doll Maintenance & Care Guide

Proper maintenance is the key to extending the lifespan of your sex doll — whether it's a silicone model or a TPE doll. Follow these essential care tips to keep your investment in top condition.

Cleaning After Each Use

Cleaning is the single most important maintenance task. Always clean your doll after every use to prevent bacterial buildup and material degradation.

• Use warm (not hot) water and a mild antibacterial soap
• For internal cavities, use a handheld shower head or irrigation syringe
• Gently pat dry with a soft, lint-free towel — never use a hair dryer on high heat
• Allow the doll to air dry completely before storage

TPE-Specific Care

TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) requires extra attention compared to silicone:

• Renewal powder — Apply baby powder or cornstarch-based renewal powder after every cleaning to maintain softness and prevent stickiness
• Oil treatment — Apply a thin layer of mineral oil monthly to keep the TPE supple and prevent drying or cracking
• Stain prevention — Dark clothing dyes can permanently stain TPE. Always wash new clothes before dressing your doll, or use a protective barrier

Silicone-Specific Care

Silicone is lower-maintenance but still benefits from regular care:

• Silicone is more resistant to staining but still avoid prolonged contact with dark dyes
• No powdering needed — silicone maintains its surface texture naturally
• Can tolerate slightly warmer water temperatures during cleaning
• Use silicone-safe lubricants only (water-based is always the safest choice)

Storage Best Practices

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat sources
• Lay flat on a soft surface to prevent compression marks on TPE
• Avoid leaving joints in extreme positions for extended periods
• Consider a dedicated hanging hook system for vertical storage
• Use a breathable storage bag — never seal in airtight plastic

Skeleton and Joint Care

The internal skeleton determines poseability and longevity:

• Move joints slowly and within their natural range of motion
• Avoid forcing joints past their stopping point — this can cause internal damage
• If a joint becomes too loose, some models allow tightening (consult manufacturer guidelines)
• Standing feet should only bear weight on flat, stable surfaces

Wig and Accessories

• Remove wigs before cleaning the doll's body
• Wash wigs separately with mild shampoo and conditioner
• Store wigs on a stand or mannequin head to maintain shape
• Replace wigs as needed — they're the easiest part to refresh for a new look
