Sex Toy Materials

Silicone (silicone rubber)
Silicone is made of natural ingredients through a synthetic treatment and is considered a natural product. As a general rule, silicones are regarded as physiologically compatible and not harmful to health and non-toxic, which is the reason for their usage in skin protectors, cosmetic skin care, and plastic surgery. In a nutshell: they are the best material for sex toys.
