As adult products for women (여자성인용품) such as dildos, vibrators, and Kegel balls come in direct contact with natural body juices, it is essential to clean them properly. When you use unclean sex products, it introduces harmful bacteria and fungi to your vagina that can result in the overgrowth of bacteria such as bacterial vaginosis. Cleaning sex toys become even more important when you use them with multiple partners.

Tips to clean sex toys

Want to know how to properly disinfect your toys? Follow these tips.

To give them a surface cleaning

Use water

Castile soap or liquid hand soap. Antibacterial soap is okay but not actually required. Never use something like dish soap.

Use clean washcloths or paper towels to air-dry your sex toys after cleaning them.

To give them a deep cleaning

Here, after you are done surface cleaning your toys, you can put them in a pot of warm water, basically submerging them for several minutes.

You can use a bleach spray bottle to kill the pathogens on your sex products.

Using a dishwasher is fine but only if it offers the appropriate settings

Use a clean cloth to gently dry your sex toys once again.

Totally optional

You can use medicated suitable sprays or adult product wipes, but then, warm water and a mild soap will be good for most sex toys.

How much time will it take to clean the sex toys?

Depending on the method you are going for, the cleaning duration is going to vary. You can expect it to take 2-5 minutes when you go for surface-cleaning your products (including air drying). If you want to remain on the safer side and decide to go for deep cleaning then it’s going to take around 8 minutes and if you prefer bleaching them, that’s going to take a total of 10 minutes approximately. Opt for the full-rinse option in case you decide to use the dishwasher.

Always make sure to purchase top-quality sex toys only from a reliable adult shop (성인용품샵)!
