⚠️ Materials to Avoid (Like, Seriously)
Some toys look cute, but come with a hidden risk. Here’s what to sidestep:
🚫 Jelly Rubber / TPE / “Love Gel”
-
Porous AF (meaning it traps bacteria)
-
Often contains phthalates (toxic chemical softeners)
-
Smells weird- and that’s your first red flag
🚫 Mystery Materials from Unknown Brands
If you can’t find the material listed on the packaging or site, or it just says “soft silicone feel”... run. Marketing words ≠ safety.
How to Tell If a Toy Is Safe
-
📝 Always read product descriptions- look for “medical-grade,” “borosilicate,” or “non-porous.”
-
🔬 Do a sniff test- strong chemical smells are never good.
-
🧽 Safe toys are easy to clean- no crevices, no weird coatings.
