Step 1: Preparing for ise

Proper cleaning prevents wear and tear and keeps the sex doll hygienic. Follow these tips:

• Lukewarm water: Rinse the doll with water that is not too hot to avoid damage and effectively remove dirt and residue.
• Mild soap: Use a skin-friendly soap without harsh chemicals. Avoid detergents like dish soap, as they can degrade the material.
• Soft cloth or microfiber cloth: Gently clean the doll and its openings with a cloth that won’t scratch. Avoid abrasive materials like scouring pads.
• Avoid harsh cleaning agents: Do not use products with alcohol, solvents, or strong chemicals, as these can weaken the material. (1)

Step 2: Dry the sex doll completely

Dry the sex doll thoroughly after cleaning. Use a soft, lint-free cloth to remove moisture. This prevents fibers or lint from remaining on the doll’s skin, which could interfere with the experience. Make sure the cloth is large enough to dry the entire surface of the doll.

Start with the dampest areas and work systematically toward the rest of the body. Gently pat dry and avoid rough rubbing to prevent damage to the material. It is important to thoroughly dry all body parts using drying sticks, including the inside of the doll if possible. This not only helps prevent mold and odors, but also extends the lifespan of your erotic doll by 1–2 years.

Step 3: Choose a safe and comfortable location

Place your doll on a suitable surface for the best experience. Choose a soft, non-linting surface, such as a satin sheet or cushion (included with your purchase). This prevents damage to the doll and helps maintain its materials. Avoid hard surfaces, as these increase the risk of damage.

Step 4: Apply water-based lubricant

Step 5: Position the sex doll as desired

Hold the sex doll in the correct way to ensure both the doll’s safety and your own. Follow these steps to place the doll in the desired position without causing damage to the joints or the material of the doll.

• Hold the doll firmly at the correct points
  Lift the sex doll using both hands and hold her securely at the stronger parts of the body, such as the hips, waist, back, or abdomen. Avoid lifting the doll only by the joints (such as the wrists, shoulders, or ankles), as this puts extra strain on the joints and can lead to damage.
  
  
• Lift the doll slowly and in a controlled manner
  Always lift the doll slowly, straight, and with control. Avoid dragging, pulling, or making sudden movements, as these canoverload the joints or damage the doll.
  
  
• Place the doll in the desired position
  Position the sex doll in the desired pose and avoid extreme positions to prevent overloading the joints. Dolls have a flexible wire structure in the hands and feet, but these can break if twisted too far.
  
  
• Be aware of joint limitations
  Sex dolls are designed to be placed in various positions, but every doll has joint limitations. Always check the doll’s manual for guidance on the range of motion of the joints.
  
  
• Prevent joint overuse
  Regularly changing the doll’s position helps prevent damage to the joints. If you notice the doll has difficulty standing upright, it is important to reconsider how you are using her and to avoid placing excessive strain on the joints.
  
  

By following these tips, you ensure that your sex doll is positioned in a safe and durable way, extending the lifespan of the doll by 1–2 years.

Step 6: Use the sex doll as desired

When using a sex doll, it is important to ensure comfort and safety. Below are some guidelines for using a sex doll in a safe and comfortable way.

Create a comfortable environment

Make sure you have a suitable and comfortable space where you use the doll. A sturdy surface, such as a bed or mattress, is ideal. This provides stability and helps prevent damage to the doll or discomfort for you during use. Always handle the sex doll with care. Treat the doll with respect to protect both the doll and yourself. Avoid using excessive force, as this can cause damage to the doll.

Use water-based lubricant, as this is the best choice for most sex dolls. Lubricant reduces friction, increases comfort, and helps prevent damage to the doll. Apply approximately 10 ml to intimate areas such as the vagina and anus for a smoother experience.

Step 7: Clean After Use

After using your sex doll, clean her thoroughly to ensure hygiene and long-term preservation. Below is a step-by-step guide on how to properly clean your doll:

• First, remove any accessories
  If you used accessories such as a vaginal or anal insert, remove these from the doll first.
  
  
• Rinse with lukewarm water
  Begin by rinsing the doll with lukewarm water between 35°C and 40°C to prevent damage to the material.
  
  
• Use a gentle soap
  Use a mild, pH-neutral soap (pH value between 5 and 7) without harsh chemicals.
  
  
• Sponge, cloth, or brush?
  Use a soft sponge, microfiber cloth, or soft brush to gently clean the doll. Pay special attention to intimate areas and be cautious around the eyes, ears, and other sensitive parts.
  
  
• Rinse thoroughly
  Rinse the doll thoroughly with lukewarm water to remove all soap residue.
  
  
• Drying
  Gently pat the doll dry with a clean cloth. Avoid using a hair dryer, as intense heat (above 30°C) can quickly and irreversibly damage the doll. After drying, allow the doll to fully air-dry in a clean, dry place. This helps prevent mold or mildew formation.
  
  
• Powdering with talcum powder
  Apply talcum powder once the doll is completely dry. This helps maintain the texture and prevents the surface from feeling sticky or attracting dust.

Step 8: Store properly

Always store your doll in a cool, dry place to prevent material damage and keep her in good condition. Ideally, the temperature should be between 5°C and 25°C.

Avoid damp areas such as bathrooms or basements, as these can cause mold growth and discoloration. Choose a storage box, wardrobe, or special hanger to keep the doll protected. Also make sure she is not exposed to direct sunlight, as UV radiation can damage the material.

The most comfortable positions for a sex doll

Some positions are more realistic and comfortable than others, depending on the flexibility of your sex doll. In general, positions where the doll experiences less bending or extreme pressure points are the most suitable. Missionary is a popular choice because the doll lies in a natural position without unnecessary stress on the joints.

Doggy style also works well, especially if the doll has firm support. Additionally, an adjustable bed or a soft surface, such as a mattress or thick blanket, improves the experience by providing extra cushioning and stability. This helps position the doll better and prevents unnecessary wear on the joints.
