If you’re staring at your new Pocket Pussy thinking, “Now what?”—you’re not alone. For most guys, the first run-in with this toy feels equal parts exciting and confusing. Will I ruin it? Will it feel good? Do I really need to clean it that much?
Here’s the truth: Your Pocket Pussy is a low-maintenance pleasure tool—if you nail three key steps: clean before use, lube up, and dry thoroughly after. Skip any of these, and you’ll end up with a sticky, smelly mess (or worse, a toy that dies after a few uses). But do them right? You’ll get months (even years) of mind-blowing experiences.
Let’s break this down—no jargon, no judgment, just straight-up actionable advice.
Unbox Like a Pro: What to Check Before You Dive In
First rule of toy ownership: Don’t tear open the package and start using it immediately. Take 2 minutes to inspect—this saves you hassle later.
Inventory check: Pull out everything and make sure you have the goods:
- ✅ The Pocket Pussy itself
- ✅ Water-based lube (usually included—good!)
- ✅ Heating rod
- ✅ Absorbent rods
- ✅ Cleaning tools (if included)
If something’s missing or the packaging is torn/damaged, hit up Bestvibe right away. They’ll sort you out with a replacement.
Quick quality scan: Give the Pussy a once-over. No cracks, no weird smells, no sticky spots? Perfect. If you see anything off (like a tear in the silicone), don’t use it—defects happen, and there’s no reason to settle for a faulty toy.
Once you’re sure everything’s good to go, let’s prep it for action.
Pre-Use Cleaning: Yes, You Need to Do This (Here’s Why)
New Pocket Pussies come coated in protective powder or tiny manufacturing residues—think of it as “shipping armor” to keep the silicone safe. Skipping a rinse is like eating a sandwich without wiping off the plastic wrap: gross, and potentially irritating to your skin.
Here’s how to do it fast:
- Hold the toy under lukewarm running water (not hot—silicone hates heat!).
- Gently rub the outside with your fingertips to wash off dust.
- Open the entrance, run water inside, and squeeze the cup softly—this flushes out hidden gunk.
- If there’s a protective film, skip sticking your fingers in—just rinse under the tap for 2 minutes.
- Pat the outside dry with a clean towel or set it on a shelf in a well-ventilated spot (away from sunlight) while you grab your lube.
Pro tip: This isn’t a deep clean—just a quick rinse. You’re not scrubbing for hours; you’re removing residues that could ruin your first experience.
Pre-Use Prep: Lube + Heat = Next-Level Realism
This is where the magic happens. Dry use is a crime against your pleasure (and your toy). Here’s how to set yourself up for success:
Lube: Non-Negotiable (Don’t Skip It!)
Grab that water-based lube (silicone-based lube will break down the toy—don’t do it!). Squirt 2–3 times (about 5–8ml) on the entrance and inside the canal. Start light—you can always add more mid-session if things feel dry.
Heating for “Real” Body Temperature
Want to mimic body temperature? Plug in the heating rod, slide it into the canal, and let it sit for 5–10 minutes. It’ll warm up to ~98°F (37°C)—just like the real thing. Heads up: Heating can evaporate lube, so add a tiny dab again before you start.
Boost Suction (Game-Changer!)
Gently squeeze the base of the cup to push out excess air. This creates a mild vacuum that makes the toy feel tighter and more enveloping. As you use it, squeeze and rotate the cup to control intensity—play around until you find your sweet spot.
Trust me: Taking 2 minutes to lube and heat turns a “meh” experience into something you’ll want to come back to again and again.
Post-Use Cleaning: Stop Bacteria in Its Tracks (Don’t Procrastinate!)
I get it—afterward, you’re tired and just want to crash. But cleaning your Pocket Pussy immediately is non-negotiable. Bacteria loves warm, damp places, and if you let bodily fluids sit, you’ll end up with mold, bad smells, or even skin irritation next time.
Here’s the 5-minute cleanup routine:
- Hold the opening under lukewarm running water. Rinse with plain water first—this washes away most of the mess.
- For a deeper clean, add a drop of mild, toy-safe detergent (or use plain water if you prefer). Fill the cup with water, squeeze the walls gently, and let the soapy water flow through.
- Use the included cleaning rod (like Bestvibe’s Soft Silicone Toys Brush) to reach the inner corners—fingers are too bulky and can tear the silicone.
- Rinse again—make sure all soap is gone. Residue = irritation, and nobody wants that.
- Pat the outside dry with a towel. Now, let’s talk drying—this is the most important step you’re probably skipping.
Pro Drying Tips: How to Avoid Mold (Spoiler: Towels Aren’t Enough)
A damp interior is a bacteria breeding ground. Even if the outside feels dry, the inside could be hiding moisture. Here are two foolproof methods to dry it completely:
Towel-Wrap Hack
Grab a clean, lint-free towel (old T-shirts work too!) and wrap it around the heating rod (or your finger—be gentle!). Slide it into the canal, squeeze a few times, and let the towel soak up moisture. Follow with an absorbent rod to finish the job.
Double-Squeegee Method
Use two absorbent rods. The first soaks up 90% of the water; swap it for a dry one to catch the last bits. Knead the cup softly for 30 seconds—this ensures the rod touches every inner surface.
Aftermath: Let the absorbent rods air-dry in a sunny, well-ventilated spot. Never store them damp—they’ll get moldy too.
Pro tip: If you’re in a hurry, set the toy in front of a fan (on low!) for 10 minutes. Just make sure it’s not in direct sunlight—silicone fades and degrades under UV rays.
Routine Care: Keep It Silky & Supple (For Months)
Once your toy is 100% dry, a little maintenance goes a long way. Here’s how to keep it feeling like new:
- Grab the protective powder that came with the toy (or cornstarch if you run out). Dust the outside lightly—don’t overdo it.
- Use a soft brush or puff to pat the powder in. This prevents the silicone from getting sticky or oxidizing (that dull, crusty look toys get when they’re neglected).
- Important: Only powder the outside! Getting powder inside the canal will cause irritation during use. Save the powder for the exterior—your skin will thank you.
Storage 101: Protect Your Investment (It’s Easier Than You Think)
Proper storage extends your Pocket Pussy’s life—no fancy equipment required. Just follow these rules:
- Don’t flip it inside out: Even though the silicone is soft, forceful stretching causes permanent deformation. The snug fit is part of the appeal—don’t ruin it.
- Keep it cool: Avoid direct sunlight, radiators, or hot bathrooms. Heat breaks down silicone, making it brittle.
- Steer clear of chemicals: Perfumes, alcohol, household cleaners, and even some lotions will destroy the toy. Keep it away from bathroom counters where these products live.
- Prevent staining: Don’t store it with dark fabrics (black socks, jeans, etc.). Dye transfers easily, and there’s no way to remove it.
- Ideal spot: Tuck it into its original storage bag (or a clean, breathable container) and stash it in a drawer or closet. For larger toys (like buttocks-shaped models), don’t pile things on top—they’ll squish and deform.
FAQs: Answers to the Questions You’re Too Embarrassed to Ask
Let’s address the elephant in the room—no question is too silly. Here are the most common ones I get:
Q: Can I use my new Pocket Pussy without cleaning it first?
A: Nope. Residues from manufacturing are on there, and they can irritate your skin. A 30-second rinse is all it takes—don’t skip it.
Q: Is it okay to skip lube?
A: Technically, yes—but it’s a terrible idea. Dry use is painful (friction = ouch!) and tears the inner walls. Water-based lube is cheap and makes the experience 10x better. Spend the extra 5 seconds.
Q: What if I forget to clean it after use?
A: Bacteria and mold will grow. Expect bad smells, a sticky texture, and maybe even a rash. If you do forget, clean it immediately with hot (but not boiling) water and a toy cleaner—then dry it like your life depends on it. If it’s moldy? Toss it—mold spores are impossible to fully remove.
Q: Why does it feel too tight?
A: Tightness is normal! Pocket Pussies are designed to be snug—tighter than manual stimulation. Add more lube—this reduces friction and makes the fit feel more comfortable. If it’s still too tight, try warming it up longer (heat softens silicone slightly).
Q: Do I need to use a condom?
A: For solo use, no—most Pocket Pussies are made from body-safe silicone. But if you’re sharing it with someone else, always use a condom. Hygiene first, folks.
The Bottom Line: Keep It Simple, Keep It Clean
Using and caring for a Pocket Pussy isn’t rocket science. It all boils down to three habits:
- Rinse it before use (2 minutes max).
- Lube it up (don’t be stingy).
- Clean and dry it thoroughly after (5 minutes).
Add a light dusting of powder and proper storage, and your toy will deliver amazing experiences for months. This isn’t about being perfect—it’s about building small, consistent habits that make your pleasure last.
So go ahead—unlock that toy, follow these steps, and enjoy. You’ve got this.
