How Stains Occur
Stains form on sexdolls mainly due to the porous nature of TPE and silicone, both of which can easily absorb dyes and pigments. The most common sources of stains are:
Colored Clothing Dye
Using dyes (even new ones) and dark clothing for your sexdoll can cause serious staining, especially when the clothing is either wet or new.
Makeup and Other Cosmetics
Most sexdoll users love applying makeup to give the doll the ultimate sensual look. Unfortunately, you will find that makeup leaves its mark and residue behind causing permanent staining.
Oils and Lubricants
While intimate relations with a sexdoll are always a highlight, it's important to be cautious about what you're using. Oils and lubricants used during intercourse may leave marks when not removed immediately after.
Ink and Pigment
There's nothing more frustrating than accidental ink contact. This includes marks from pens, makers, or any other printed substance or product that can transfer color.
Prevention and Care Tips
It is important to note that the material of sexdolls can easily absorb dyes and other coloring agents, thus causing damage. The below tips will prevent and take care of stains.
Clothing Advice
Choose The Right Clothes:
Light Colors, Preferably White
It's always best to dress your sexdoll in light colors that lack dye to prevent any stains. The brighter the color the greater the risk of stains.
Wash Dark and Bright Colors before Using Them
Before dressing your sexdoll in new dark or bright colored clothing you need to wash it at least a few times. This removes any transferable dye that might be on the clothes.
Use Body Stockings and Protective Suits
One of the best solutions against stained clothes is using a body stocking or a protective suit for your doll. These are normally worn with tight or dark colored clothing. They offer protection and prevent the skin of the doll from any contact with clothes, therefore stopping any kind of dye transfer from ever happening.
Always Make Sure The Clothes Don't Stick for too long
Regularly change the sexdolls outfit as well as ensure it doesn't remain static or on the doll for too long; the more static and constant the interaction, the more likely for staining to occur.
Makeup Advice
Use Only Silicone-Safe and Oil-Free Products
The best type of makeup to use is that that has water-based ingredients or those explicitly labeled as "silicone-safe." Oil-based makeup and certain pigments should be avoided as they absorb onto the material much easier and tend to be permanent. You can even try mixing oil-free lotion with your usual makeup to decrease potential issues. It's always best to test first; before applying, test any new makeup products on a hidden part of the doll.
Apply Lightly
You do not need to cake your doll in makeup; instead, keep a minimal application for the most natural and safe look. This is mainly due to the makeup potentially transferring onto other surfaces. Always make sure to gently remove any extra residue using a makeup sponge.
Always Clean Off After Use
Make it a ritual to clean your doll right after applying any makeup to remove any remnants of pigments before they have the chance to bond with the sexdoll. It's best to use a makeup remover for skin which is generally very gentle; though if it doesn't remove traces, warm water with mild soap will usually suffice.
Oils and Lubricant Advice
Always Use Water-Based Lubricants
Using oil-based lubricants is known to damage and stain your sexdoll due to their absorbent nature. Opt for the water-based alternative. These are typically safer and wash away with much greater ease, avoiding unwanted stains.
Clean the Doll After Use
You will not only remove unwanted bodily fluids but lubricants/oils also; use soap and water immediately to ensure there is no staining left by oils.
Ink and Pigment Advice
Keep away from Pens and Makers
Make sure that nothing pen like gets anywhere near the doll, it could mark the doll with permanent stains that would ultimately need removal using TPE or silicone specific paint products if you're lucky.
Try to Store the Doll Carefully
The best way to store your sexdoll safely and free from unwanted marks is with a sexdoll storage bag and in a safe place that isn't around pens, inks and other colored pigment rich things.
Sexdoll Care and Maintenance Advice
Give regular baths to your sexdoll using soap and warm water, and dry it with a soft towel. Use nothing too strong like bleach or alcohol for cleaning, it might harm the skin. You should then cover the doll with cornstarch or talcum powder so as to remove stickiness and absorb extra oil from the skin. Use anything that absorbs and mattifies as your primary choice.
Storage Tips
Store your sexdoll in an airy, clean and dry place; far away from direct sunlight as this may degrade its material, fade its color and stain the skin. Always cover your sexdoll with a fabric sheet or storage bag in order to protect it from dust and dirt that could otherwise adhere to the silicone or TPE. Take care not to store the doll under extreme pressure; for instance, don't put heavy objects on top or anything that might indent the skin.
Dealing with Small Stains
If you spot a small stain you might not know how to treat it without the problem getting worse.
If you notice a stain immediately clean it away; there are several stain remover products available that will assist. For any persistent marks, just keep on cleaning with mild soap and warm water-you have nothing to lose at this point-but always blot at it, never rub as this will cause staining on the sexdoll. If this is proving difficult, then maybe try an industrial cleaner suitable for silicones or TPE, always making sure to thoroughly rinse off and apply oil or a stain remover solution as a final step.
Conclusion
Maintaining your sexdoll so that it remains as flawless as possible over the years will involve careful selection of clothing and products, as well as a diligent cleaning routine, proper storage techniques and, if possible, the use of protective coatings and products for the sexdoll.
