How To Clean and Store Male Sex Toys

Whether you've bought a brand spanking new Monkey Spanker or you've just invested in a sensation-packed Tenga Flip Hole Masturbator, keeping your new male sex toy feeling fresh and new is highly important.

However, each sex toy requires a different kind of maintenance and knowing which advice to follow can be tricky.

That's why we here at LoveHoney have collaborated all the best male sex toy care information and presented it for you here!
 

Fleshlights

No matter what kind of Fleshlight you own - Fleshlight Girl, super ribbed, pink lady - the care instructions are the same.

After use, remove the insert from the plastic casing and run hot water through the middle to remove any lubricant or bodily fluids. Don't use any cleaners or detergents as these will deteriorate the surface of your Fleshlight - hot water will ensure optimum hygiene on its own.

Next, towel or air dry the gel insert. Many people use a hairdryer to speed up the process but leaving it on a clean, dry shelf works just as well!

Afterwards, you will notice that the Fleshlight feels slightly tacky or sticky but this is perfectly normal. Use a little cornstarch/corn flour on the insert and it will feel as silky smooth as the day you bought it!

To properly re-position the gel insert inside the plastic canister, reach through the small end of the canister and pull the insert down into place.

 

TENGA

The TENGA Flip Hole Masturbator couldn't be easier to clean!

After use, slide the TENGA out of the plastic clip and open it up. Rinse the internal sleeve under a running tap, using your hands to stroke over the ribs and nodules then either leave to drain on the stand or pat dry with a clean towel.

The TENGA Onacups and Eggs are designed to be used only once, but you can prolong their usable life by wearing a condom each time you use them.

 

Male Masturbators

Whether it's a discreet masturbator, a pocket pussy or a hand-sized stroker, if you clean it right it will give you years of pleasure.

Firstly, make sure that you remove any vibrating parts or ensure that water won't be getting near them.

Secondly, run your male masturbator under a hot tap, making sure to get into any lumps, bumps or ridges.

Thirdly, use a clean dry cloth to pat it dry both externally and as far as you can reach internally. By leaving it in a well ventilated area the natural flow of air will dry any bits you can't reach!

 

Realistic Vaginas

To keep that life-like feel of your realistic vagina male sex toy there are a few steps you need to follow:

1. Wipe the exterior with a wet cloth.
2. Rinse the interior out with a little warm running water.
3. Turn the product upside down to let the water drain.
4. Pat dry with a clean towel or tissue.
5. Dust lightly with cornstarch/cornflour to get rid of any tackiness.

 

Sex Dolls

To care for your sensual sex doll, we advise taking her out for dinner, buying her a piece of Tiffany jewellery and keeping her away from naked flames.

Alternatively, rinse all orifices out with warm water several times, spray with LoveHoney SQWERTY Advanced Sex Toy Cleaner then pat dry using a clean cloth or towel.

 

Cock Rings

Cock rings are probably the easiest male sex toy to clean.

All they require is a wipe down with a wet cloth and they're ready to go again! If you're being really careful however, spray it with a little LoveHoney SQWERTY Advanced Sex Toy Cleaner, wipe it down and leave it to dry in a dust-free place.

 

Prostate Massagers

As prostate massagers are used internally, it's important that they're kept ultra clean to avoid any discomfort or infections and we here at LoveHoney highly recommend the 'rinse and repeat' method of cleaning your prostate massager!

After use, run your prostate massager under a hot tap, using a damp cloth or tissue to get into any ridges or bumps. Repeat this several times until you have covered every surface. Then spray your prostate massager with LoveHoney SQWERTY Advanced Sex Toy Cleaner, rubbing it in to every area. Rinse one final time and pat it dry with a clean towel.

By following the simple guidelines laid out above you are guaranteed long-lasting, body-safe pleasure for as long as you have your male sex toy!
