    Silicone doll vs. TPE doll

    It can be hard to decide what material to choose for your beauty.

    TPE and silicone materials are used by most manufacturers in the production of realistic sex dolls. Dolls made from these two materials look very similar in the photo.

    So what is the difference between them?

    The TPE leather materials is much softer than silicone and feels more like a real person. As its full name - thermoplastic elastomer - shows, TPE is more durable than silicone. For testing, we can stretch silicone 3 to 6 times and TPE can be stretched 6 to 10 times. Although silicone sex dolls are not as soft as TPE sex dolls, there are some upgrade options for you. Many customers prefer to jazz up their silicone dolls with gel breasts and gel butts; these are soft as jelly and feel very skin realistic indeed.

    However, silicone dolls look better than TPE dolls. Silicone can express details such as veins, muscles and body hair. Weight-wise, the same volume of silicone will be heavier than TPE. Therefore, there is an option to use weight reduction technique. Part of the inner silicone can be replaced with a foam core, which allows customers to move the doll more easily. If you are sensitive to odor, silicone dolls may be better. TPE retains a slight odor because it can be melted and re-molded.

    Silicone can withstand extreme conditions, including high and low temperatures, acids and alkalis, and reacts almost non-reactively with any substance. Proper storage and avoidance of highly corrosive items can extend their life.

     

    Price:

    Silicone dolls are much more expensive than TPE sex dolls for their superior performance. We offer platinum silicone that is non-toxic, tasteless and environmentally friendly. A silicone doll is a common choice for the customer who has higher appearance requirements. Compared to silicone dolls, TPE doll seems more affordable and economical. There is a compromise between silicone and TPE and you can choose the head and body separately.

     

    Maintenance:

    Daily maintenance is essential to prolong the life of your doll. After receiving your sexdoll, we recommend that you do a preliminary cleaning. Use cold or warm water up to 38℃ (100.4℉) to rinse off surface dirt. Then apply body wash or hand sanitizer to the dolls surface and spread and rinse. Wipe the surface of the realistic doll with a light dry cloth and dry thoroughly; apply cosmetic brush powder - we recommend S8 Renewal Powder 60gr. For TPE dolls, the first noticeable aging is their make-up. Generally, the makeup of TPE dolls lasts 3 to 6 months, while silicone dolls are permanent and there is room left to touch up your TPE dolls. As mentioned above, TPE doll is well known for its softness; we recommend that you always put the doll in the box (original box) when not in use. In comparison, silicone dolls are more durable in everyday environments.

     

    Conclusion:

    The choice between TPE and silicone depends very much on personal taste and preference. TPE is more elastic, softer, ergonomically adaptable, while silicone is non-porous, hypoallergenic and heat resistant. Ideally, you could own erotic aids made in both materials so that you can choose which material is more suitable for you.

    Whichever material you choose, make sure you buy from trustworthy sellers. We only offer proven brands and products that meet the strictest conditions and certifications set by both EU and US legislation.
