Owning a German sex doll is a significant investment, and proper use and maintenance are essential to ensure its longevity and continued realism. First, always handle the doll gently, especially when moving or repositioning it, to avoid damaging delicate features or the skin material. Before use, it’s advisable to clean the doll’s orifices and surfaces with mild soap and warm water or a specialized toy cleaner to maintain hygiene. After use, a thorough cleaning is recommended to prevent bacterial growth; use soft cloths and avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the material. Dry the doll completely with a soft towel and allow it to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Applying a protective powder designed for silicone or TPE can help maintain the skin’s softness and prevent stickiness over time. Storage is equally important; keep the doll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and sharp objects. When not in use, store the doll in a relaxed, natural position to avoid strain on joints and materials. Regular inspection for tears or damage allows prompt repairs, extending the doll’s lifespan. Proper care not only preserves the doll’s appearance and texture but also ensures a safe and satisfying experience for the user. Educating oneself on best practices guarantees years of enjoyment and maintains the doll’s realistic qualities.
