Four Main Factors Affecting the Life Span of a Sex Doll
Posted on October 05 2022
Love dolls have already become an integral part of many people's lives. No wonder those mind-blowing inventions hold a special place in their owners' hearts as they bring so many different emotions and bright colors to their sexual lives.
Purchasing a lifelike high-quality love doll costs a fair amount of money and time. After buying, you quickly get obsessed and develop a deep connection with your doll due to its amazing features and benefits.
Unfortunately, everything has its life span. Saying "goodbye" is the last thing you want to experience with your passion.
However, if you know how to maintain and take care of your doll properly, you raise the chance for it to "live" longer. There are several factors affecting the life span of a sex doll. Let's have a look.
Material
Material is a key factor affecting the life span of a sex doll. It's obvious: the better the sex doll material is, the longer it can withstand humidity, harsh temperatures, and other external factors that may cause its quick damage.
The two top high-quality materials for love dolls are TPE and silicone. They mimic real skin and thus dictate an unforgettable feel and sensation. There is only one downside: price, especially for medical silicone. However, if you want to get the best possible love doll, this is a normal relationship between quality and price.
If you are hesitating about which material to choose, TPE or silicone, let us quickly compare these two:
- TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) is less expensive than silicone. It's more sensitive, especially regarding heat, and requires some extra care. It can be ripped more easily and wears out a bit faster. Still, if you look after your love doll properly, she'll last as long as a silicone one. Believe us: it is worth your care! TPE is extremely soft, flexible, and elastic. This blend will provide you with a very lifelike touch.
- Silicone is a durable and heat-resistant material. It's non-porous and easy to clean. Just imagine, with such a doll, you could enjoy bathing in warm and even hot water. Silicone is all about the best quality and long life span. That's why the price for it is a bit higher. Of course, it's not as soft as TPE and is more rubber-like than lifelike. But if you want to get the best quality doll, it's an investment in the wise direction.
Use
The way you use a love doll is a primary driving factor for how long she will last. If you are a fan of BDSM practices or simply get pleasure from behaving in a rough manner, it is no difference whether a doll is made of silicone or TPE - it won’t last that long if you beat the crap out of her.
Mistreating your doll could lead to tears, pressure dents, and cracks, which are about to reduce the life span of your beauty. So, the rougher you are with your doll, the shorter it will stay in good condition.
However, even for regular use, you can reduce the effect of wear and tear by proper care and maintenance of your sex doll. By the way, some models even come with repair kits or replaceable genitals to solve the damage issues immediately.
Remember that your favorite sex doll is very sensitive. Try to treat her with love and utmost care. Of course, it doesn’t mean you have to forget about your craziest dreams and fantasies, but you can realize them without damaging your favorite doll.
Don’t drag your doll across the floor or bump her all over the place when moving her from one place to another. This is a direct way to tear it or cause damage to her joints. Pick her up in a tender manner and be careful when doing it.
Maintenance
Proper maintenance is also an important factor to consider. Clean your love doll gently after each use with warm water and mild unscented soap, especially the more complex body parts like the anus, vagina, and inner thighs. It won't take more than five minutes once you get used to it.
Сleaning is not only about hygiene but health and safety. Leaving your fluids inside and outside the doll creates a real risk of developing bacteria and fungus, damaging the material and also becoming a health risk to you.
After cleaning, use a soft towel to dry your doll off properly. If you avoid this stage, it may lead to damage issues. Also, talcum powder is a great thing to protect the material and keep the surface soft to the touch.
Use lubricants but don't stick to oil-based ones as they can easily damage TPE material. Choose high-quality water-based lube as it doesn't require any special cleanup after use, and it won't damage the surface. When using a condom, check if it also has a water-based lube.
Why Should One Use Lubricant When Penetrating a Sex Doll?
Using your favorite lube while penetrating a sex doll is extremely important for several reasons.
First and foremost, it makes the process much more pleasurable, especially if you warm it up in your hands. A mind-blowing warming sensation is guaranteed.
Speaking about the life span, it also depends on whether you apply lubricant. Constant friction frequently becomes the reason for rips and tears. Those may also lead to bacteria buildup and possible health issues.
Storage
Wrong storage may also drastically affect the life span of sex dolls. Create a perfect environment for your doll. Store it in a cool, dry place like a locking storage sofa or a wardrobe. High temperatures and humidity will undoubtedly shorten the doll's life. Avoid direct sunlight. A doll suspension kit with a head holder must also be considered when storing.
Store your doll fully naked. Cloth is a perfect lure for a cloud of dust. Use a special case and a cover from a soft and natural material without an apparent weave or dye.
Keep your love doll in a proper position. There is no difference in whether she will lie down or stand up: you should always keep her joints fully extended. Don't keep pressure on them for long periods. It may damage your doll and cause the joints to become loose or break.
The Bottom Line
These are the key factors that affect the life span of sex dolls. Buying a love doll is a great investment in your sexual life. If you want to get the most out of it and make it long-term, follow the tips above.
To sum up, pay attention exclusively to high-quality materials when choosing your new passion. TPE and silicone will give you the best possible emotions and feelings. Make love to your doll. Behave with her as if it's a real human. Don't handle her too roughly, as it will lead to numerous dents and cracks. Always clean and dry her off properly after each use. Don't forget about storage. Choose a cool, dry place without direct sunlight.
And remember: with proper usage and maintenance, you can effectively extend the doll’s life and use it for many, many years.
