Safe Shopping Guide: Choosing Quality Adult Products

When shopping for intimate products, safety and quality should always be your top priorities. Here's everything you need to know about selecting products made from safe materials and avoiding cheap, potentially harmful items.

Why Material Safety Matters

Your intimate health is precious. Products made from low-quality materials can cause:

• Allergic reactions and skin irritation
• Infections due to porous materials that harbor bacteria
• Exposure to toxic chemicals like phthalates
• Physical discomfort or injury

Safe Materials to Look For

Body-Safe Options

• Medical-Grade Silicone: Non-porous, hypoallergenic, and easy to clean
• Borosilicate Glass: Durable, non-porous, and temperature-safe
• Stainless Steel: Body-safe, non-porous, and long-lasting
• ABS Plastic: Hard, non-porous plastic that's body-safe when high-quality
• Natural Stone: Polished jade, rose quartz (ensure proper sealing)

Materials to Avoid

• Jelly/Rubber: Often contains harmful phthalates
• PVC: May contain toxic chemicals
• Unknown plastics: Cheap materials without clear labeling
• Latex (if you have allergies)

Red Flags: Signs of Cheap, Unsafe Products

Warning Signs

1. Strong chemical smell: Quality products should be odorless
2. Very low prices: If it seems too cheap, there's usually a reason
3. No material information: Reputable brands clearly list materials
4. Porous surfaces: Can trap bacteria and are impossible to fully sterilize
5. No brand name or manufacturer info: Accountability matters
6. Unclear product descriptions: Vague or missing safety information
