Your sex toys should be cleaned thoroughly after each use before being stored away appropriately. Proper cleaning and care will help maintain the life of your toy as well as helping you to maintain personal health. A poorly cared for sex toy can deteriorate as well pass on any infections such as Thrush of Chlamydia.

How you clean your sex toy depends on the material it is made of, and whether it is waterproof or has any motorised components or batteries. If your toy has become heavily soiled or has ridges and bumps, a soft toothbrush can be used to gently clean it rubbing softly on the areas that need extra cleaning.

Your sex toy will last if you take care of it. Proper cleaning and storage will prolong the life of your sex toy, however you should always check before each use for any abrasions or breaks in the surface of the toy or for any mould or fungus growths. Proper storage away from direct sunlight will help against any hardening, brittleness or discoloration as will using the proper recommended lubrication. If you are unsure as to what lubrication to use, a water based product minimises any chance of reaction to the product.
