Silicone vs Rubber: The Truth About Body Safe Materials

The Hidden Trap of Cheap Materials

When shopping for pleasure, it’s easy to be swayed by a lower price tag. But have you ever noticed a strong "chemical" smell from a new toy? Or felt a slight sting during use? Many entry-level products are made of rubber or "jelly" materials that are far from being a body safe material.

At Fizzglow, we believe your safety is priceless. Understanding the difference between silicone vs rubber isn't just about durability—it's about protecting your delicate internal ecosystem. In this guide, we’ll expose the risks of porous materials and why choosing phthalate free toys is the only way to ensure long-term health.

What is "Porous" Material and Why It Matters?

The biggest danger of rubber and jelly toys is that they are porous. Under a microscope, these materials look like a sponge with thousands of tiny holes. These holes trap bacteria, dead skin cells, and fluids that can never be fully washed away.

Conversely, Fizzglow uses 100% non-porous medical grade silicone. This creates a biological barrier that bacteria cannot penetrate, making it the gold standard for hygiene.

Beyond the Surface: Why Phthalate-Free Toys are a Must

To make rubber toys soft and flexible, manufacturers often add phthalates (plasticizers). These chemicals are linked to hormonal disruptions and can leach into your bloodstream through the sensitive membranes of your intimate areas.

True body safe materials are always phthalate free. When you choose a Fizzglow product, you are guaranteed a 100% toxin-free experience. We don't use fillers or hidden chemicals—just pure, biocompatible silicone.
