Dildos can be made out of lots of different materials, like silicone, rubber, plastic, metal, or, break-resistant glass.
The material is one of the most important considerations to keep in mind when shopping for a new sex toy.

1. Silicone
The silicone used in sex toys is medical-grade, so you don’t have to worry about it irritating your sensitive skin. It’s also non-porous, so hygiene and cleanliness aren’t a problem either. Best of all, silicone is beautifully smooth, velvety to the touch, and firm without actually being hard. Just make sure you choose your lubricants with care and avoid choosing oil-based lubes because silicone and oil-based lube will react chemically.

2. Liquid Silicone
Much like silicone, liquid silicone is durable and easy to take care of. It provides the most realistic feel out of sex toy materials.

3. Jelly Rubber
Jelly rubber is flexible and pleasant to use. so it’s perfect for creating dildos in just about any shape. However, some jelly rubbers contain added phthalates, which help make them more flexible, but can irritate sensitive skin or cause health problems. Please pay careful attention to the specifications of a given jelly toy, as they will tell you whether it contains phthalates.

A simple guide on how to wash dildo properly:

1. Use a cleaning spray
There are cleaning sprays used for sex toys, specially formulated for cleaning toys, and can be safely used for silicone, latex, rubber and so on.

2. Sanitize
To eliminate bacteria it’s necessary to disinfect your toys thoroughly, most silicone, glass, metal, and wooden toys could easily be handled with clean water and mild soap.

3. Boil
Another way to disinfect your favorite toys is to boil them. Before boiling, make sure your toys are waterproof or non-motorized.
Also make sure they are made of silicone, stainless steel, heat-resistant glass or glass. No other materials should be boiled.

4. Wash before storing
After using sex toys, you should always clean them before storing them, and do not put them in a drawer where body fluids are dry. Develop the habit of washing after completion, and store it cleanly in a box or special toy bag specially prepared for it.

5. Wash with mild soap
Do not use any harsh soaps containing harsh chemicals to clean your sex toys. Stick to fragrance-free soap, that way you don’t stand a chance of irritating your body.

The most important characteristic to think about is size. Too little and it won’t hit the spot. Too big and you might not ever use it. However, most dildos on the market are between 1 and 2 inches in diameter (approximately 4 to 6 inches in circumference). Keep in mind that diameter is the width across and circumference is the girth around.

One of the easiest ways to gauge what size dildo you might like is to consider your partner’s penis or toys that have worked well in the past.

Also, keep in mind that your finger may also be one of the size adjustment tools you refer to. If you are not sure what thickness you like, consider playing with your fingers first. See how many fingers you think feel good, then take out some tape measures the circumference of these fingers.
