Your first choice in sex toys should be silicone and CyberSkin toys that are made from elastomers. These are a high quality, hypoallergenic easy to clean materials. The best part is that they don’t contain any traces of hazardous additives whilst importantly maintaining their softness. Silicone toys warm up when they come into contact with the body and pass on vibrations well. They are durable, extremely soft and perfect for penetration.

The bad ones

Hard plastic or acrylic toys are also an option. They are non-porous and are phthalate-free. Phthalate is normally used for softening the sex toys. Since acrylic toys are meant to be hard, it is not necessary to use toxic chemicals and plasticisers to soften them. These sex toys are normally people’s second choice, as they are hard to clean and crack easily when dropped. Glass dildos are also a good option but they are hard, expensive and do not vibrate. There is also a fear of chipping the glass. Metal vibrators are also good, but they can be very high in price.

The ugly ones

Soft rubber and jelly toys contain phthalate to ensure softness and flexibility. These toys can be porous and difficult to clean. Jelly vibrators are made using polyvinyl chloride (PVC), a harmful chemical that is used in many consumer products. Many people choose jelly rubber sex toys, as they are reasonably priced, soft and come in a wide range of attractive colours. If you want to use jelly rubber toys, it is advisable to use them with a condom to avoid any unwanted problems. Sometimes some manufacturers use artificial scents to mask the strong smell of chemicals used in jelly vibrators. These can aggravate problems, due to many people being allergic to these artificial scents.

The good, bad and ugly of sex toys will give you an insight to some of the downsides of sex toys so you’re able to make an informed choice!
