Applying lubricants correctly enhances comfort and realism during use, while also protecting the doll’s surface. Choose a lubricant compatible with the doll’s material—water-based lubricants are safe for most surfaces, including silicone and TPE, while silicone-based lubricants should be used cautiously as they can sometimes damage certain materials. Before application, ensure the doll is clean and dry. Dispense a generous amount of lubricant onto your hand or directly onto the desired area, then evenly spread it to create a smooth, slick surface. For internal use, apply lubricant generously inside the cavity to reduce friction and prevent tearing. Reapply as needed during use to maintain optimal lubrication. Avoid using oil-based lubricants with dolls made of sensitive materials, as they can degrade the surface over time. Additionally, be mindful not to over-lubricate, which can cause excess mess or make handling slippery. After use, clean off any residual lubricant with warm water and a gentle cleanser to prevent buildup that could cause stickiness or attract dirt. Proper lubrication not only enhances your experience but also minimizes wear and tear, ensuring your doll remains in excellent condition for longer.
