Sex Toy Materials - What are They Made of? What is the
Difference?
Silicone:
Silicone sex toys are hypoallergenic, soft and life like in
feeling. Silicone sex toys have a 'sensual feeling'. Silicone
sex toys also retain body heat better making them feel more
realsitic. It is a high quality sex toy material and most often
the more expensive sex toys are made of silicone. It is well
worth the extra few dollars for a silicone sex toy becuase
silicone sex toys have a longer life, they do not wear out as
quickly as other materials such as latex. Also, silicone sex
toys are easier to clean and more hygenic then most others
becuase they are relatively non porous and can be boiled to
really sterilize the adult toy. Silicone sex toys do not have
the rubber smell that latex toys do.
Latex rubber:
Latex is a very popular material for sex toys. It has the
softness of jelly without the the smell and the texture. Latex
sex toys are firmer then silicone toys but softer then plastic.
Latex is a very inexpensive material and most cheaper sex toys
are made of latex. Latex is a very porous material and can
easily develop a layer of harmful bacteria if not properly
cleaned. It is always recommended to purchase Sex Toy Cleaner
with any latex toy and use it every time. Latex toys wear out
alot quicker then silicone toys, but that is to be expected with
a cheap sex toy! Some people are allergic to latex rubber and
should not use latex toys.
Plastic:
Plastic sex toys are solid and smooth and they are the most
powerful conducter of vibrations. Plastic is recommended for
those who like powerful vibrations. Sex toys made of plastic are
usually held against the clitoris, since penetration can cause
some discomfort. Plastic is an inexpensive material and is easy
to clean. It is recommended to use Sex Toy Cleaner with plastic
sex toys however they are more hygenic then latex sex toys. The
downside of plastic vibrators is that they tend to be noisy.
Cyberskin:
Cyberskin is the closest thing to human flesh. It does not look
very realistic but the feeling is exactly like the real thing.
Cyberskin is made of a combination of silicone and plastic. It
has the soft touch of skin but the firmness of a real penis.
Cyberskin is a high quality material and expect to pay a little
more for Cyberskin sex toys but it is well worth it. Cyberskin
sex toys are porous and should be cleaned with Sex Toy Cleaner
after every use. When storing Cyberskin sex toys, sprinkle on
talc powder, this will help it to retain it's suppleness and
greatly extend the life of the high quality Cyberskin sex toy.
Jelly or Jel-lee:
Jelly sex toys are a rubber based material that come in a wide
variety of colors and shapes. Jelly adult toys are inexpensive
so that makes them very popular. The material conducts good
vibrations throughout the vibrating jelly sex toy. They are not
too powerful and have a 'massaging' sensation. Jel-lee sex toys
are not very noisy becuase the jelly material silences the noise
fairly well. Jelly sex toys are very porous and should be
cleaned before and after with Sex Toy Cleaner. Jelly sex toys
have a limited lifespan but if well taken care of, they should
last longer then latex sex toys. Be sure to keep them in a cool
dry place wrapped in a lint-free cloth. Jelly sex toys easily
attract dust and lint. Always use a water based lubricant with a
jelly sex toy, that will reduce the wear and tear on the
material and provide more comfort for you.
Pyrex or glass sex toys:
Glass sex toys are the newest emerging popular material. There
is nothing but positive reasons for owning a glass sex toy.
There is only one downside, that is the price. They are all
handmade and considered peices of art. Glass dildos are 100%
safe, hypoallergenic & often recommended by doctors to curb
cross contamination associated with traditional materials. All
Phallix Glass Dildos are tempered for high durability & when
properly cared for will last a lifetime. Colors won't fade or
bleed & they're dishwasher safe! Glass sex toys are becoming the
upscale, classy sex toy for any woman to have.
