Keep your Nexus masturbator sleeve attachment clean and hygienic with this step-by-step care routine, from removing the sleeve to drying and storing it properly.
Quick answer
Clean your Nexus masturbator sleeve attachment after every use with warm water and mild soap, then dry it completely before storing it separately from the Doxy massager. This simple routine keeps the silicone hygienic and ready for next time.
Why the sleeve material needs a different approach
The Nexus masturbator sleeve is made from dual-density silicone, which is non-porous and hypo-allergenic. That means it resists bacteria growth better than porous materials, but it still needs thorough cleaning because the textured ticklers can trap residue. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that could degrade the silicone surface over time.
What to skip when cleaning and storing
Don't submerge the Doxy massager itself in water—only the sleeve attachment is removable and washable. Also, avoid storing the sleeve attached to the massager for long periods, as trapped moisture can encourage mildew. Keep the sleeve in a dry, dust-free pouch or container away from direct sunlight.
Step-by-step cleaning and care routine
- Remove the sleeve from the Doxy massager: Unscrew the massager head and gently pull the sleeve off. Do this over a sink or soft surface to avoid dropping it. Never pull forcefully—if it sticks, check for any locking mechanism before applying more pressure.
- Rinse the sleeve with warm water: Hold the sleeve under warm running water to flush out residue. Avoid hot water, which can damage the silicone over time. Test water temperature on your wrist first—it should feel comfortably warm, not hot.
- Apply mild soap and gently massage: Use a small amount of mild, fragrance-free soap. Gently work it into the ticklers and inner canal with your fingers. Do not scrub aggressively. Avoid soaps with harsh detergents or exfoliants—they can leave residue or scratch the silicone.
- Rinse thoroughly: Rinse the sleeve under warm water until all soap is gone. Residual soap can irritate skin or degrade the material. Check for any slippery feel—if it persists, rinse again.
- Shake off excess water and pat dry: Shake the sleeve gently to remove water, then pat it dry with a clean, lint-free towel. Do not wring or twist. Avoid using paper towels, which can leave lint behind in the ticklers.
- Air-dry completely: Place the sleeve on a clean, dry surface with good airflow and let it air-dry fully before storing. This may take a few hours. Never store the sleeve while damp—moisture trapped inside can lead to mold or odor.
- Store separately in a dry, dust-free place: Once fully dry, store the sleeve in a dedicated pouch or container away from other toys and direct sunlight. Keep it separate from the Doxy massager. Label or mark the storage spot to avoid mixing up attachments.
