A high-quality sex doll can become your long-term intimate companion if properly maintained. Whether the material is TPE or silicone, regular cleaning, proper storage, and gentle use are the keys to maintaining its appearance, touch, and functionality. This guide provides a comprehensive maintenance routine, covering everything from daily cleaning to long-term care.

Ⅰ. Cleaning and Hygiene

1. Cleaning Frequency

   It is recommended to perform a thorough cleaning after every use. Even if not in use, it is best to clean it every two to four weeks to prevent dust accumulation, keep it dry, and ensure hygiene.

2. External Cleaning

   Use warm water and mild antibacterial soap. Gently wipe or pat the surface of the doll with a soft sponge or your hands—treat her as you would your own skin. If the doll has neck connectors or electronic interfaces, avoid direct immersion or heavy rinsing; a gentle shower method is safer.

3. Internal Cleaning (Genital Areas)

   After each use, be sure to clean the vaginal, anal, and oral channels to prevent bacterial residue. Use an irrigator to inject diluted antibacterial soap solution for careful rinsing, then rinse thoroughly with clean water.

4. Drying Treatment

   Gently pat the surface dry with a soft, absorbent towel. For internal channels, use specialized drying sticks and disinfecting heating rods to ensure complete drying and sterilization. Allow the doll to air dry completely before storage to avoid odors or mold caused by moisture.

Correct Storage Methods

If you have a doll with a replaceable head, a head stand is the ideal choice for storing the head separately. For the body, it is recommended to lay it flat, hang it, or use support structures to assist with standing (only applicable to models with standing feet). Large-scale storage boxes designed specifically for dolls are also suitable for overall storage. Feel free to contact us to learn more about professional storage methods.

Avoid Improper Postures

During use or storage, do not leave the doll in twisted, folded, or otherwise unnatural positions for extended periods to avoid pressure marks or permanent deformation. Long-term fixed creases may lead to surface shrinkage or even material damage.

Dust and Damage Prevention

Protect your doll daily with soft blankets, dedicated storage bags, or dust-proof boxes to avoid dust accumulation and accidental bumps. Do not place the doll near sharp objects or in high-traffic areas to minimize the risk of damage.

III. Material-Specific Care (TPE and Silicone)

TPE Material Maintenance

TPE is soft and realistic, but its porous nature makes it more susceptible to absorbing oils and stains, requiring regular cleaning and maintenance. After each cleaning and once completely dry, it is recommended to evenly apply specialized TPE powder, baby powder, or food-grade cornstarch to keep the surface silky, reduce stickiness, and extend the material's lifespan.

Silicone Material Maintenance

Silicone is generally more durable and stain-resistant. However, some "ultra-soft silicone" models can be quite delicate. During daily use, avoid scratches from sharp objects. Depending on changes in tactile feel, you can periodically apply specialized maintenance wax to the surface to maintain its premium texture.

Stain Prevention

To prevent dye transfer, do not leave the doll in dark or brightly colored clothing that may bleed for long periods. It is recommended to wash new clothes beforehand to remove excess dye or have the doll wear light-colored undergarments as a protective layer.

Stain Removal

If stains appear, first use a specialized cleaner for spot treatment. For stubborn stains, apply a small amount of stain removal oil or specialized maintenance oil over the area, wrap it gently with plastic wrap, and let it sit for several hours to overnight before cleaning. This is usually effective in significantly improving the surface appearance.

IV. Skeleton and Joint Maintenance

When adjusting the doll's pose, please move the joints gently and slowly. Avoid excessive twisting or bending beyond the normal range of motion to prevent damage to the internal skeleton or tearing of the outer material.

Do not leave joints in restricted or unnatural positions for extended periods, as this may lead to loosening, deformation, or wear.

When changing poses, it is recommended to support the body part near the joint with one hand while slowly adjusting the angle with the other. Pay particular attention to key areas such as the neck, shoulders, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles.

Avoid applying sudden force, pulling directly on limbs, or lifting the doll solely by the arms, legs, or neck. When moving the doll, provide overall support by cradling the torso.

For long-term storage, it is recommended to keep the doll in a natural, relaxed position to reduce continuous pressure on the skeleton.

V. Maintenance and Repair

1. Daily Powdering Maintenance

After cleaning and drying completely, or when the doll's surface begins to feel sticky, you can apply specialized talcum powder, baby powder, or food-grade cornstarch gently over the entire body. This helps maintain a silky-smooth, skin-like touch and reduces material wear caused by friction or contact with clothing.

2. Minor Damage Repair

If micro-scratches or small tears appear on the TPE or silicone surface, a repair kit designed specifically for dolls can be used for restoration. For specific operating steps and product recommendations, please contact official customer service for professional guidance.

3. Hair and Wig Care

Wig Care: We recommend removing the wig before use, washing it gently with a mild detergent, and letting it air dry in a ventilated area. Ensure it is completely dry before putting it back on.

Implanted Hair Care: If your doll features implanted hair, use only a wide-tooth comb for gentle grooming. Avoid forceful pulling or frequent combing to prevent hair loss or damage to the scalp base.

4. Makeup Maintenance and Touch-ups

Periodic touch-ups help maintain your doll's lifelike appearance. Note that maintenance differs between TPE and Silicone materials:

• TPE Material: Regular human makeup (blush, eyeshadow, lipstick) can be used. Apply gently to avoid excessive friction.
• Silicone Material: For more durable, natural results and to prevent smearing or skin damage, we recommend using specialized silicone pigments (such as Silc Pig) or properly diluted oil-based pigments, applied with an airbrush or makeup sponge.

VI. Important Prohibitions

To ensure the longevity and optimal condition of your doll, please observe the following prohibitions:

• ❌ Prohibited: Contact with Alcohol and Harsh Chemical Cleaners: Do not use cleaning products containing alcohol, solvents, or strong acids/alkalis to avoid damaging the material surface, which may lead to discoloration, aging, or melting.
• ❌ Avoid: Dark, Tight, or Unwashed Clothing: Dark clothing can easily cause dye transfer; tight clothing may leave permanent pressure marks; and unwashed new clothes may contain residual dyes, all of which can damage the doll's skin.
• ❌ Do Not: Maintain Extreme or Weight-Bearing Poses for Long Periods: Avoid leaving joints and the skeleton in excessively bent, stretched, or stressed positions for extended periods to prevent internal skeleton deformation or material tearing.
• ❌ Strictly Forbidden: Direct Sunlight and High-Temperature Environments: Do not place the doll in direct sunlight, near heaters, or inside vehicles for long periods, as high temperatures can cause the material to soften, deform, age, or fade.
