How to Safely Warm Up or Cool Down a Glass Dildo for Temperature Play?

Silicone toys get boring after a while. Glass toys change the game because you can heat them up or cool them down before using them. The heavy and hard pressure of glass combined with a sudden temperature drop or rise shocks your nerve endings and creates a lot of sensitivity. 

But you cannot just throw cold glass into boiling water. Extreme temperature changes cause thermal shock, which shatters the toy. You have to heat and cool the material slowly to keep the glass intact and protect your skin from burns.

Are borosilicate glass dildos better than silicone toys for safe temperature play?

A body safe glass dildo works much better for temperature play because hard borosilicate glass holds heat and cold up to three times longer than a standard silicone toy. Divas Den always suggests glass for temperature play because the material transfers the sensation directly to your skin without losing its chill. 

How do you safely warm up a glass dildo without causing thermal shock?

You safely warm up a glass dildo by letting it sit in a bowl of warm tap water for five to ten minutes for temperature play. Never put glass sex toys in the microwave or drop them into a pot of boiling water on the stove. 

1. Run the Tap - Fill a clean bowl with warm water straight from your sink. If the water is too hot for your bare hands, it is too hot for the toy. 
2. Submerge the Toy - Place the glass directly into the bowl. Let it sit for five full minutes so the heat penetrates the core of the glass. 
3. The Wrist test - Pull the toy out, dry it off and press the glass against the inside of your wrist. The inside of your wrist mimics the heat sensitivity of your internal pelvic tissue.

Where can I buy a premium, easy-to-sterilize glass dildo in Australia?

You can buy a glass dildo in Australia directly from the Divas Den online shop to make sure you get medical-grade and shatter resistant borosilicate glass. Do not buy cheap glass from novelty stores because standard glass cracks easily under physical pressure. 

• Sterilization - Real borosilicate glass is 100% non-porous. You can wash it in the dishwasher or wipe it down with a heavy antibacterial toy cleaner without ruining the surface. 
• Weight - Quality glass carries a heavy and dense weight that provides a deep feeling of fullness you cannot get from hollow or foam-filled toys. 
• Luke Compatibility - Unlike silicone toys, glass works perfectly with every single type of lubricant, including thick silicone-based lubes and natural oils. 

Let’s Try Temperature Play

Adding a glass toy to your collection gives you total control over the physical sensation. Heat relaxes the pelvic muscles for deep penetration while cold tightens the tissue for intense nerve stimulation. Shop glass toys. Grab a body-safe glass toy for your next session at Divas Den. 

FAQs

Can I put a glass dildo in the freezer?

No. Putting glass in the freezer drops the temperature too low and risks giving you internal frostbite. Put the toy in the refrigerator for 15 minutes instead for a safe cold sensation. 

What is the safest way to store a glass dildo to prevent micro-cracks?

Always store your glass toys inside a thick and padded storage bag or wrap them in a clean towel. Do not throw them loose into a drawer where they will bang against hard plastic toys or metal vibrators. 

Do glass dildos break inside you?

No, not if you buy a proper borosilicate glass toy. Borosilicate is the same hard and shatter-resistant material used to make heavy kitchen baking dishes. It handles body weight and muscle contractions without cracking.
