"Removing the sense of sight increases the sense of anticipation and allows your partner to focus more on the physical sensations," says Uren. "You can also experiment with cold and hot by blowing on the wax as it cools to give your partner goosebumps or even use an ice cube to send shivers of pleasure through their body." 15. Don’t skimp on the aftercare! For anyone looking to heat up their sex life, wax play is here for you. And no, we don’t mean waxing hair off your body. , it’s a form of temperature play or sensation play originating from the BDSM community, according to sexologist Shamyra Howard, LCSW, a member of the Men's Health Advisory Board. Temperature play could mean melting ice cubes on your body, freezing sex toys, and of course, dripping wax. Beeswax: Stay away from these (beeswax will burn the skin!) or any candle that does not have its ingredients listed, says Smith. But make sure you don’t pour from too far away either, so you can avoid hot splashes of wax from landing on unintended areas of the body and bed. And even when you’re pouring from a safe and agreed-upon distance, consider blowing out the flame just in case. You can always relight it when you need more wax.

And that’s nice?

Just because the wax is now on your partner’s body doesn’t mean that’s game over. Running ice cubes over the still-warm wax, or tapping on hardened wax, can open up even more pleasure, says Couple. 14. Feeling bold? Try adding other BDSM elements. Wax can splatter into the eyes, which may be harmful. [ citation needed] Wax that is too hot can cause serious burns. Wax may be difficult to remove, particularly from areas with hair. A flea comb or a sharp knife may be necessary for wax removal; use of a knife for this purpose requires special skills, though a plastic card can work as well. Applying mineral oil or lotion before play can make wax removal easier. If at any point the wax starts getting uncomfortable, tell your partner immediately so you can stop. Communication is top priority during wax play and all sexual experiences—not just those that fall into the BDSM camp, says Cannon. The best way to communicate that the sensation or pain is too much for you is a with a safe word other than "stop," he adds. Try something random that you’d never say during sex, like "purple" or "sledgehammer," so you both know playtime has come to a definite end. Once you hear it, listen for what your partner needs—it might just be a request to slow down, or they might need a first-aid kit. You can tweak it so it fits your needs but, in most situations, wax play calls for lighting a candle (not just any candle! but I’ll get to that later), letting the wax pool for a bit, and dripping the melted wax onto skin.

As already highlighted, there will always be safety concerns with wax play due to the risk of burns. You should also keep in mind that wax should always be kept away from your eyes, as it can be blinding. Wax play—where hot candle wax is dripped onto the skin—is another way to bring candles into your sex life. It's perfect "for people who are a bit more adventurous and like a little pain with their pleasure," Howard says. (If you've never dabbled in wax play before, she recommends reading articles and watching professional videos on the safest ways to do it. If you're playing with a partner, make sure you have a safe word and an aftercare plan in place before you begin. Keeping a first-aid kit nearby can't hurt either, although you shouldn't need it if you study up on safe wax play beforehand.) One of the best ways to avoid this is by using kink specific candles that have a lower burning temperature, like this one from Maude or this one from Knude Society. "A large safety consideration is to not drip wax on the face, in the ears, in open cuts, anywhere inside the body, or in hair, as wax removal in hair can be difficult and sometimes painful." TBQH, wax is a bitch to clean up, so doing some pre-play prepping might save you a headache later on. Put down a disposable sheet or use puppy pads, per Smith. It’s also not a bad idea to lay down an old sheet you don’t care about over your bedspread as an extra precaution, adds Queen. 7. …And prep your body for cleanup. Wax play candles burn a little bit hotter, and the slight heat of the wax is part of the fun, but they’re still specially formatted for wax play.While some do find it enjoyable, ensuring you have your partner’s consent is important, as well as understanding that wax play can potentially lead to injuries from either the flame or the heat of the wax if safety rules aren’t applied. It’s essential that wax play is performed with someone that you trust," says Ness. Is wax play safe? Another added bonus is the aromatherapeutic benefits," she says. "Essential oils like clary sage, lavender, sandalwood, ylang-ylang, rose, bergamot and ginseng have aphrodisiac properties that will help get anyone in the mood before or during sex."
