care & maintenance guide
proper care and maintenance are essential for preserving the quality, appearance, and longevity of your mini anime sex doll. follow this comprehensive guide to keep your doll in optimal condition.
initial setup
when your doll first arrives, carefully unpack it and inspect for any shipping damage. allow the doll to reach room temperature before handling. wash your doll thoroughly before first use with mild antibacterial soap and warm water.
regular cleaning routine
after each use
clean your doll immediately after use to prevent bacterial growth and material degradation:
- rinse with warm (not hot) water
- apply mild antibacterial soap with a soft cloth or sponge
- gently clean all surfaces, paying special attention to detailed areas
- rinse thoroughly until all soap is removed
- pat dry with a soft, lint-free towel
- air dry completely before storage or powder application
deep cleaning (weekly or bi-weekly)
perform a more thorough cleaning every 1-2 weeks depending on usage:
- use a specialized doll cleaner or mild soap solution
- clean the doll in a bathtub or shower for easier handling
- inspect for any tears, stains, or damage
- clean removable parts separately
- ensure complete drying before reassembly
powder application
after cleaning and drying, apply renewal powder (cornstarch or specialized doll powder) to maintain the skin texture:
- use a soft brush or powder puff for even application
- apply a light, even coat over all skin surfaces
- powder helps prevent tackiness and maintains realistic feel
- reapply weekly or after each cleaning
