So Many Materials...
Which is Best for You?

Cyberskin:

Many of us have heard of cyberskin but were not quite sure of what it is. Cyberskin is a remarkable material with two unique properties. First, the bonding between the atoms is super flexible and resilient the material can be stretched out and but go back to its original shape. Second, it can simulate the softness of skin and the rigidity of penis tissue. Cyberskin was first developed by NASA engineers.

It is formed on a computerized injection molding machine called the Aerospace 601. Cyberskin TM and Futurotic TM are brand names of this fantastic material. This material is also known as truskin, soft touch, thermal plastic or cyber. What’s great about this material is that is it extremely life like and will warm with ones body heat. Cyberskin has a thicker, more solid feel and provides a greater resistance where as the others tend to be softer and provide a clingy sensation.

Maintenance

Realistic toys are a wonderful thing to add to your toy collection but do tend to be a bit more pricy. You will need to be sure to take care of your new toy to prevent having to buy another too soon. A few good tips on taking care of your new toy are as follows:

1. Wash with an antibacterial soap.
2. Gently pat off and air dry
3. Powder with talc, cornstarch or a cyber care renewing powder
4. Keep in an airtight place and keep dry or they may mold.
5. Always use a water based lube with your realistic toy.

Silicone

Silicone is a completely non porous material that can be thoroughly clean with soap and water or by boiling. You can boil a silicone toy for 20 minutes for best results. Silicone is a great toy for someone to use that has latex allergies due to the fact that silicone is hypoallergenic.

Rubber

Rubber is very inexpensive and very common among sex toys. Rubber or Latex toys tend to wear out quickly than others. Latex is very porous and hard to clean thoroughly. Many people have latex allergies and should never use a rubber or latex toy. For all the others, rubber is inexpensive, easy to come by and will get the job done. One advantage is that latex rubber tends not to have a smell as some toy materials on the market.

Plastic

Plastic is also a very common material used for sex toys. You know all those basic vibes? There more than likely just hard plastic. It’s hard, cold and inflexible. . If you like a strong vibration and the cool feel of plastic then this is the toy for you. They also make a great first time vibe!

Glass

As the new millennium has approached there have been many new and exciting products now available on the market. One of those great new items is dongs made out of glass. The glass dongs are 100% completely safe for penetration and can be very versatile. They now come in all shapes and sizes and be be used in different way. One may find themselves placing it in a cool bowl of ice water on a hot summer night. When it's cold outside you may want to place it into a warm bowl of water and snuggle up nice up nice and toasty! A great one to try is the Bent Graduate, $49.
