Cleaning and maintaining an adult doll is essential for keeping it in good condition and ensuring its longevity. Here&39;s a stepbystep guide to help you clean your doll so it looks like new:
1. Gather Cleaning Supplies
Mild Antibacterial Soap or Special Doll Cleaner: Make sure it’s gentle, especially for TPE or silicone materials.
Soft Sponge or Cloth: Avoid anything abrasive to prevent scratching.
Soft Brush: For delicate areas like the face or around joints.
Talcum Powder or Cornstarch: Helps maintain a smooth, realistic skin feel after cleaning.
Microfiber Towels: For drying the doll.
Softbristle Toothbrush (optional): For cleaning hardtoreach areas.
Wig Shampoo: If your doll has a removable wig.
Vaginal Irrigator or Douche: For cleaning the doll’s orifices, if applicable.
2. Remove Wigs and Accessories
If your doll has a wig, remove it for separate cleaning. Gently wash the wig with wig shampoo and let it air dry.
Remove any accessories or clothing to prevent staining.
3. Prepare the Doll
Lay the doll on a soft surface, like a towel or blanket, to avoid damage while cleaning.
Be careful when moving or posing the doll to prevent damage to joints or delicate areas.
4. Wipe Down the Body
For TPE or Silicone Dolls: Use a soft sponge or cloth with warm water and mild antibacterial soap or a special doll cleaner. Avoid soaking the doll in water, especially near the head and joints.
Gently clean the skin: Wipe down the entire body, paying special attention to areas like the arms, legs, and torso.
Avoid harsh chemicals like alcohol, bleach, or oilbased cleaners, as these can damage the material.
5. Clean the Orifices (if applicable)
Use a vaginal irrigator or douche to gently clean the orifices (vaginal, anal, or oral cavities). Use mild soapy water to flush these areas, followed by rinsing with clean water.
Dry the interior: After cleaning, ensure the orifices are thoroughly dried using a soft towel or cloth. Leaving moisture inside can cause mold or damage.
6. Dry Thoroughly
After washing, gently pat the doll dry with microfiber towels. Be careful to ensure that no moisture is left in any crevices or joints.
Let the doll air dry completely in a wellventilated area before reapplying powder or redressing it.
7. Apply Talcum Powder or Cornstarch
Once the doll is dry, lightly dust it with talcum powder or cornstarch to restore the smooth texture of the skin. This helps prevent the material from becoming sticky and maintains its soft feel.
Use a soft brush or your hands to evenly apply the powder over the entire surface of the doll.
8. Clean the Face and Makeup
For facial cleaning, use a softbristle brush or cloth to gently clean the face, avoiding any permanent makeup areas.
If the doll has makeup, avoid rubbing those areas too hard. You can use a damp cloth or cotton swab to clean around the eyes and lips without removing makeup.
Reapply makeup if needed, using safe, waterbased cosmetics designed for dolls.
9. Clean and Style the Wig
If your doll wears a wig, wash it with wig shampoo and conditioner. Let it air dry on a wig stand before styling it.
Brush the wig gently, using a wig brush to prevent tangling.
10. Regular Maintenance
Regular Cleaning: Depending on use, clean your doll regularly, especially the orifices, to avoid buildup of oils, dirt, or other residues.
Avoid Sharp Objects: Ensure that the doll doesn’t come into contact with sharp objects that could puncture or damage the material.
Store Properly: Store the doll in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to avoid fading or damage. If possible, store the doll in a standing position or laid flat to avoid deformation.
