In this guide, we'll teach you exactly how to clean your sex doll, the easy way!
This guide is suitable for both silicone sex dolls and TPE sex dolls, and it's written for doll owners who don’t like the cumbersome task of carrying their doll into the bathtub or shower.
We advise against taking your doll into a bathroom because carrying large objects around a wet, slippery floor can be quite dangerous. We also strongly advise against submerging the entire doll underwater, including the head.
It's actually very easy to clean your sex doll. Just follow this simple guide, and your doll will be squeaky clean in no time. We advise cleaning your doll using the below method when your doll arrives and after use.
Content:
1. Preperation
Before we clean your sex doll, there are a few items we need. Please ensure you have all the items listed below before we get started:
- 2 x Large Towels
- 1 x Large Bowl or Bucket.
- 1 x Soft Microfibre Cloth
- 1 x Large, Soft Makeup Brush
- 1 x Spray Bottle
- 1 x Douche
- 1 x Washing-Up Liquid
- 1 x Baby Powder
2. Remove the doll's head.
Remove the doll’s head and wig and place them to the side. We’ll clean the head later. Remove any clothing and accessories. The doll should be completely nude before cleaning.
3: Lean the doll against a wall.
Lay a towel on the ground near a clear wall. Stand the sex doll on the towel and gently lean the doll against a wall. Place another towel between the doll and the wall. This towel adds protection.
Ensure the legs are spread slightly wider than shoulder-width to help with balance.
4. Remove any loose debris.
Remove any loose debris on the skin surface, such as hair or loose dirt.
You can use a vacuum cleaner to gently vacuum the surface of the skin and remove debris.
⚠️ Using a vacuum cleaner must be done with care and caution, if you are not careful you could damage the sex doll's skin. Make sure the vacuum is on its lowest power setting.
5. Spray the doll with soapy water & massage.
Create a soap-water mix by mixing approximately 2 teaspoons (10ml) of washing-up liquid with approximately 500ml of warm water. Don't go too overboard with the washing-up liquid; you only need a small amount. Now, we are ready to clean your sex doll.
Lightly spray the doll with soapy water. Work into a lather using your hands only. Massage the doll and work away any surface dirt, starting at the top (neck and shoulders) and working your way down to the feet.
After you have finished massaging the front of your doll, you can turn the doll around and clean the back in the same way.
⚠️ Do not use a cloth to rub the soapy water; it will damage the doll's skin. Use your hands only when massaging the doll's skin.
6. Gently pat-dry your sex doll.
When you have finished massaging your doll, and all the dirt has been washed away, you can pat dry your doll with a clean micro-fibre cloth.
Never rub your sex dolls skin with a cloth, it will cause damage.
7. Fill the douche with warm soapy water.
Now, we will clean the sex doll's love holes.
Fill the douche with soapy warm water. It's essential to fill the douche all the way up to the top.
When the douche is full, place it to the side, we will use it in a minute.
8. Place a large bucket on the floor.
Make sure the doll's legs are spread wider than the doll's shoulders, and the love hole is open.
Place the large bowl or bucket on the floor, underneath the vagina, between the legs.
9. Apply some soapy water to the vagina.
Apply some soapy water to the outside of the vagina area; this will act as a lubricant for the douche.
10. Insert the douche.
Insert the douche deep into the vagina cavity and gently squeeze multiple times. The soapy water should squirt out of the douche and into the cavity.
Repeat this multiple times until the sex doll's cavities are fully clean. Repeat this step for the anal cavity if needed.
11. Pat-dry the vagina.
After you have cleaned the love holes, pat dry any excess soapy water using the microfibre cloth. Do not insert the microfibre cloth into the sex doll's vagina or anus, as this could cause damage. Instead, leave the doll leaning against the wall for 1 hour (or until dry) so the cavity can air-dry and any excess water can drip out. (Make sure the love hole cavity is spread open whilst drying; if it is closed, then it will not dry properly.)
12. Clean your insert.
Step 12: Clean your insert.
This step only applies to sex dolls with a removable insert vagina. If your sex doll does not have a removable vagina insert, you can skip this step.
For sex dolls with removable vagina inserts, simply remove the insert and wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap. Rinse thoroughly, pat dry, and let it air dry completely before reinserting. You should still clean the main cavity periodically, as above.
13. Carefully clean the head.
While the doll is drying, you can clean the head. To clean the sex doll's head, simply apply the soapy water mix directly to the microfibre cloth and then gently pat the surface of the head. This stage must be done carefully with very little pressure; treat it like a real person. As you clean the sex doll's head, do not rub or scrub any part of the face, as this will remove the makeup and cause damage.
14. Clean the mouth cavity.
To clean the mouth cavity, you can use the douche, as explained in the previous steps.
For silicone heads, leave the mouth open to fully dry and angle the head so excess water can drain out of the mouth when drying.
For TPE heads, angle the head so excess water can drain from the mouth when drying.
15. Apply baby powder.
When your sex doll is dry, the skin may feel slightly "sticky" or "tacky" and may also appear "shiny." This is perfectly normal. To combat this, you can apply baby powder generously and work it into the skin using a large, soft makeup brush.
16. Mission accomplished.
Congratulations, you now have a very clean sex doll, ready to be packed away... or used again. 😉
Only pack away your clean sex doll when completely dry. Ensure all areas, especially the love holes, are thoroughly dried to prevent moisture buildup, which can lead to mould or bacteria growth.
It’s a good idea to store the doll wrapped in a blanket in the original box (or similar) in a cool, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and pets, if not being displayed or enjoyed.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I clean my sex doll?
You should clean your sex doll's love holes after every use to ensure proper hygiene and prolong the lifespan of the materials. This should never be skipped.
You should clean your sex doll thoroughly (as described in this blog) regularly to prevent the buildup of bacteria, dust, and other contaminants that could affect both the doll's appearance and your health.
Why do I need to clean my sex doll?
Cleaning your sex doll is essential for both hygiene and maintenance. It helps prevent the growth of bacteria and mould, which can cause infections and odours. Additionally, regular cleaning keeps the doll looking fresh and can extend its lifespan by preserving the quality of the materials.
Are there any chemicals I should avoid when cleaning my sex doll?
Yes, avoid using harsh chemicals such as bleach, alcohol, or strong detergents, as these can damage the doll's skin, cause discolouration, or degrade the material over time. Stick to mild, pH-balanced cleansers specifically designed for TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) or silicone, depending on your doll's material.
How can I fully disinfect my sex doll?
You can add an antibacterial solution that is safe for the doll's material to the soapy water mix. Many washing-up liquids are antibacterial and will kill 99% of all bacteria. Any antibacterial solution you use must be free from alcohol and harsh chemicals. Ensure you rinse off the disinfectant thoroughly and allow the doll to air dry completely before storing it.
Can the make-up be removed if I clean my sex doll too often?
Silicone Dolls: Cleaning your sex doll regularly shouldn't remove the makeup on silicone dolls, provided you follow the steps in the guide and provided you use the proper techniques and products.
However, you must avoid scrubbing and rubbing too vigorously or using harsh chemicals, which will wear down the makeup over time. To maintain the makeup, use gentle, pH-balanced cleansers and soft cloths when cleaning.
TPE dolls: The makeup on all TPE dolls is not permanent and will eventually fade and come off. Cleaning will speed up the process of makeup fading. Fortunately, it is relatively easy to reapply, and after a few practices, you'll be comfortable reapplying it.
Can I use and Automated cleaning device on my sex doll?
Automated cleaning devices can be convenient, but it's essential to ensure that they are safe for use with your sex doll's material. Some devices may be too harsh and could damage the delicate surfaces. Always check the manufacturer's guidelines before using any automated cleaning tools on your doll, and opt for devices specifically designed for this purpose.
Can I speed up the drying process after cleaning?
To speed up the drying of the love holes, you can use a hairdryer on a cool, low setting. However, avoid applying direct heat; this can melt the doll and cause irreversible damage.
You can also use a fan and point it toward the doll or a chalk stick (a specialist drying stick designed for sex dolls).
How should I store my doll after cleaning?
To preserve its material, store your sex doll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. It's best to store the doll lying flat or in a natural, relaxed position to avoid creasing or deforming the material. We offer storage cases or hanging options that can help maintain your doll's shape and extend its life span.
