Silicone toys - safe to store together?
Hello,
I'm new to silicone toys and wanted to know if it is okay to store them together without a barrier. The boxes take up a bit of room and I'd..
Silicone or cyberskin?
Cyberskin looks and feels real but is so high maintance! Silicone is somewhat just as good and way easier to clean, so which do we prefer?
Teeth on Silicone?
When giving blowjobs to silicone dildos, has anyone damaged any of theirs with incidental teeth contact? My wife likes to jokingly chew on them while...
Silicone dildo imperfections?
I just received the Vixen Leo dildo. I noticed it has a few tiny bumps on the head and shaft. They're more easily noticeable by feel than sight. Is...
Tear In Silicone Material?
Hey Guys, I did a search, but didn't find the answer to my question. I'm sorry if I missed something. At any rate, I have the Tantus VIP Super Soft,

The difference in texture is the finish on the master and the molds. When we polish a master and make molds from it, it has a shiny slick finish. When we put it in a sand blaster it has a matte finish which is more flesh like.
For molds it's easier if the artwork has a matte finish. You have less blem ratio and the molds last longer. We are lucky in that we understand how to make and keep high polished artwork, so Tantus finishes are what we think aesthetically work best for each piece.
Again... that's a great question.

And now I feel like an ass, cause I always thought it was a different kind of silicone...so is, say, the more velvety Curve made with a sandblasted mold, and the more elastomer-like Acute made with a polished mold?
