Learn How to Prolong the Life of Your Adult Toys

Both men and women are now open to the prospect of using sex toys. For men, if your partner wants to make use of a phallic sex toy, do not look at it as a threat to your manhood. In fact, it should ease some of the performance anxiety because your partner will be able to focus on the fun that’s injected by the sex toy into your bedroom activities. On the other hand, women who are going solo may also have a collection of penis-shaped sex toys which can be used to release whatever sexual tension they’re feeling.

Proper Care for Adult Toys

If you have a collection of phallic sex toys, how can you prolong the life of each individual item, make sure that they’re sanitary to use the next time, and that they can be safely used for your health? Take a look at the following tips:

Inspect the sex toy before using.

Let’s say that you have a Cyberskin dildo or a jelly vibrating dildo which you haven’t used for some time. The first thing you need to do to make sure that it’s still suitable for use in the bedroom is to inspect the item. Are there any visible marks, dents, or obvious signs of damage on the surface of the toy? If it’s a battery-operated device, are the batteries still usable? Are there any loose screws, missing parts, or damage on the mechanism? Are there any signs of wear and tear?

When buying a new sex toy, you can use the same checklist. Better yet, check on the product details if you’re buying from a website. Is it phthalate-free? If it’s made from a unique kind of material, is it suitable for your skin? This is something that you need to be especially cautious about if you’re prone to allergies.

When cleaning the sex toy

Make sure that the cleaner is suitable for the material it’s made of. Next, to prolong the life of your sex toys, you need to make sure that they are cleaned after every use. You don’t want to be caught up in the heat of the moment, only to find out that your collection of sex toys are dirty. It’s a definite mood killer if you would suddenly have to go to the bathroom to do some cleaning.

When doing maintenance cleaning of your collection of sex toys, make sure that you are using a cleanser that’s suitable for the type of material that it’s made of. A safe bet, however, would be to dilute a small amount of liquid soap, dishwashing liquid, or hand soap with water. Clean the sex toys then air dry.

Check on the manufacturer’s manual for proper storage instructions.

Finally, some sex toys need to be kept away from direct sunlight. Jelly, rubber or Cyberskin sex toys, for example, might be damaged when stored in humid rooms – so it’s better to put them in a cool, dry place. If you have more than one sex toy which you need to store side by side, make sure to keep them in separate containers or Ziploc bags so different materials won’t be in contact with each other.
By following these tips, you can maintain the cleanliness and prolong the life of your adult toys collection – so they’re ready to use anytime things start heating up in the bedroom.
