When it comes to using lubricants with sex dolls, it’s crucial to select products that are compatible with the doll’s material. TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) and silicone are the most common materials used for sex dolls, but they require different types of lubricants to maintain both the doll’s integrity and your experience.
For TPE sex dolls, water-based lubricants are the safest option. TPE is porous, so it can absorb oils and silicone-based lubricants, which can cause the material to degrade over time. Water-based lubes are easier to clean off and are non-reactive with TPE, preserving the doll’s texture and extending its life. It’s important to avoid oil-based or silicone-based lubricants entirely when using TPE dolls, as these can break down the material, causing it to lose its softness and flexibility.
Silicone sex dolls, on the other hand, can tolerate a broader range of lubricants, but it’s still best to stick to water-based options for compatibility. Silicone-based lubricants should be avoided for silicone dolls as they can lead to the materials bonding, potentially ruining the texture and feel of the doll. Water-based lubricants will be the most compatible with both TPE and silicone, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience without compromising the doll’s material.
