A simple, step-by-step routine for cleaning silicone sex toys safely with an organic toy cleaner, including how to use a toy cleaner spray and avoid common mistakes.

Quick answer

Clean silicone toys by rinsing off debris, spraying an organic toy cleaner like b-Vibe Organic Toy Cleaner directly onto the surface, letting it sit for the time stated on the label, then wiping or rinsing and drying completely. Use a dedicated toy cleaner rather than household sprays, and clean before and after each use.

Why silicone needs a dedicated cleaner

Silicone is non-porous, which makes it easier to clean than porous materials like jelly or TPR. But non-porous does not mean self-cleaning: body oils, lubricant residue, and bacteria can stay on the surface until you wash them off. A dedicated organic toy cleaner is formulated to break down that residue without leaving harsh chemical residue behind, and it avoids the risk of using household cleaners that may degrade silicone or irritate skin.

Check the label of any cleaner before use. Some cleaners are designed for quick spray-and-wipe, while others require rinsing. The b-Vibe Organic Toy Cleaner is marketed as an organic formula that kills germs instantly, but always follow the specific directions on the bottle for contact time and rinsing.

When to clean: before and after

Clean your silicone toys both before and after each use. Cleaning before use removes dust or residue from storage; cleaning after use removes body fluids and lubricant before they dry and become harder to remove. If you switch between partners or between anal and vaginal use, clean thoroughly in between or use a fresh condom on the toy.

For daily or weekly storage, a quick spray and wipe is usually enough, but a full wash with soap and water is recommended periodically, especially for toys used frequently.

What to avoid

Avoid abrasive scrubbing pads, bleach, and cleaners containing alcohol or harsh detergents, as these can damage silicone over time or leave irritating residue. Also skip the dishwasher unless the toy manufacturer explicitly says it is dishwasher-safe; motors and battery compartments are usually not.

Never submerge a vibrating toy or one with a charging port unless it is rated waterproof. Even waterproof toys can be damaged if water gets into the charging port, so wipe around ports carefully.

Step-by-step cleaning routine

Remove obvious residue: Rinse the silicone toy under warm running water to remove lubricant and body fluids. If residue is sticky, use a small amount of mild soap and rub gently with your fingers. Skip this step and you will spread residue around instead of removing it.
Apply organic toy cleaner: Spray b-Vibe Organic Toy Cleaner directly onto the toy’s surface, covering all areas that contact the body. For a spray bottle, 2–3 sprays is usually enough for a small toy; larger toys may need more. Do not spray into charging ports, battery compartments, or motor openings.
Let it sit for the contact time: Check the cleaner’s label for the recommended contact time. If no time is given, let it sit for at least 30 seconds to allow the cleaner to work. Rushing this step reduces the cleaner’s effectiveness.
Wipe or rinse: Use a clean, lint-free cloth or paper towel to wipe the toy, or rinse under warm water if the cleaner’s directions allow. For toys with crevices, use a soft brush or cotton swab to reach into grooves. If you rinse, make sure the toy is not fully submersible unless it is waterproof.
Dry completely: Pat dry with a clean towel and let the toy air dry fully before storing. Moisture left in crevices can encourage bacteria growth. Store only when completely dry; a damp toy in a closed container is a breeding ground for germs.
Store properly: Keep silicone toys in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and other materials that may react with silicone. A storage pouch or box is ideal. Avoid storing silicone toys touching other silicone toys for long periods, as they can sometimes bond or degrade.
