A simple maintenance routine will keep your sex doll fresh, smooth and pleasant to use. Modern sex dolls are much improved technically and require less maintenance than older models, but basic care is still necessary. This has everything to do with the soft, skin-like material.

If you want to keep maintenance simple and safe, we recommend the DutchDoll maintenance set. This set contains exactly what is needed to keep the material clean and in good condition.

Why maintenance is necessary

Sex dolls are made of TPE or silicone. These materials feel realistic but react to moisture, friction and residue from lubricant or cleaner.

TPE has a more open structure. As a result, it can retain moisture more easily and sometimes feel a bit sticky if not properly dried and post-treated. Silicone is denser in structure and usually a little easier to maintain, but again, residual moisture or soap scum can cause problems.

Therefore, maintenance is not about complicated operations, but about three simple things: cleaning, drying well and keeping the surface balanced.

What you need

• DutchDoll maintenance set (wash + maintenance powder)
• Two soft microfiber cloths
• Rinse bottle (vaginal shower)
• Optional: drying sticks for internal channels

Good to know: Doll.shop supplies a rinse bottle with all models as standard.

After each use

Cleanse
Cleanse the skin with lukewarm water and a mild wash. Work gently and without harsh rubbing. Preferably use DutchDoll Intimate Wash to prevent dehydration and agitated skin reactions.

Internal channels
Rinse vagina, mouth or anus with the provided rinse bottle and a small amount of wash. Always rinse once or twice afterward with water only. Residual soap residue is a common cause of stickiness.

Dry
Pat the outside dry with a clean microfiber cloth. Pay extra attention to creases and contact areas such as groin, armpits and under the breasts.

For internal ducts, you can use drying sticks, but drying carefully with a microfiber cloth also works. The important thing is that no residual moisture is left behind.

We deliberately do not sell electronic dryers. In our experience, these are often unreliable, not always fully approved and can damage the equipment.

Powder
When everything is completely dry, apply a thin layer of maintenance powder. This restores the matte finish and prevents stickiness, especially with TPE.

How often maintenance?

Maintenance is mainly something you do after use. It does not require a set schedule or intensive periodic treatment. Doing this consistently keeps the material stable and prevents problems.

“I was afraid at first that maintenance would be a lot of hassle, but it’s really not that bad. After use, I’m usually done within 5 to 10 minutes.
The maintenance powder also ensures that the skin remains lifelike and soft to the touch and that the doll remains beautiful in the long run.”

Sticky skin?

Stickiness is usually caused by residual moisture or soap scum. Here’s how to solve it quickly:

• Gently clean again
• Rinse extra well
• Careful drying
• Light powdering

In most cases, the skin feels normal again immediately afterward.

Testing something on the material

In doubt about a product or method? Always test it first on an inconspicuous spot, such as high on the neck under the hair. That way you can see how the material reacts without risk of visible spots.

Less maintenance than before

Modern sex dolls are made with improved materials and manufacturing processes. As a result, they are more stable and less sensitive than older generations. With a simple routine and the right products, they stay in good condition without problems.
