Have you ever found yourself in this situation? You're about to go on a date with your favorite sex toy, and then you realize… it needs to be cleaned. Luckily, this isn't nearly as difficult as it sounds. We've got a few tips for you here: 1) First, let's start with the obvious: Don't use soap! Soaps can leave behind residue that's bad for your body and even worse for your mild toys. 2) Instead of soap, try using warm water and a mild antibacterial cleaner like hand sanitizer or rubbing alcohol. You might want to use a soft cloth or paper towel while cleaning, but we don't recommend using anything abrasive like sponges because they could scratch your toys' surface—which will make it less safe for you to use them in the future. 3) Once everything is clean, just pat dry with another soft cloth or paper towel so there aren't any drips or pools left behind where bacteria could grow (yuck!).
