Wax play is for people who want to spice up their sexual life. And no, we are not referring to shaving off body hair; rather, we refer to a type of sensory play or temp play that has its roots in the BDSM world. Playing with temperature might involve pouring wax, freezing sexual accessories, and melting ice cubes on the skin.
There's a widespread misperception that wax play requires expert knowledge or membership in the BDSM community. No, it doesn't! In reality, you may have wax play in the cozy environment of your residence, either by yourself or with a partner. Additionally, not many supplies are needed to get started. But be sure you have the skills and equipment necessary to play properly prior to you begin splashing wax all over yourself. Prepare ahead of time to avoid getting burned, if you understand what we mean.
Prepare Your Wax
Choose carefully the fragrance candle you take out of your stash. That fragrant one you received as a gift several decades ago? You don't want it seeping into every part of your body. Those candles have a strong heat source and might harm you. For wax play, you'll need special candles that burn at a lower temperature and are designed to be in close proximity to your body. Candles for body rub are an excellent option for novices. You can begin dripping as soon as you ignite the candle, hold it for fifteen to thirty minutes, blow it out, and allow it to cool off.
Choose a soy-based candle if you wish to raise the temperature to a higher degree. An added sting is also produced by paraffin candles. Additionally, various wax objects can be burned in place of massage candles, a few of which you might already possess in your house. Birthday candles and crayons work well because of their modest burning degrees.
Check The Temp
Check that the temperature is appropriate before you begin to drip wax all over yourself or a companion. Light the wick and allow the wax to fall six inches over the surface of your forearm. Permit yourself to experience that feeling; if it is uncomfortable, raise your arm while carrying the candle upward until you find a comfy position. The less strong feeling is when the candle is further away from your body since the wax will not be as hot when it gets close to your skin. The feeling gets stronger with decreasing distance.
Don't Let The Wax Leak Onto Delicate Skin
Avoid getting any wax on your face, hair, or genitalia while you experiment with its sensation. Wax may harm delicate areas and can be challenging to remove from hair or hairy parts of your body. Applying wax on oneself or a partner is simple when it comes to the legs and arms. Proceed cautiously, as areas like the tummy and thighs may be more sensitive.
Never, Ever Stop Communicating
A word of caution: communication is essential while engaging in wax play or any other sex-related activity with a partner. The traffic light system is a basic one. "Green" signals to proceed, "yellow" to pause and sign in, and "red" to cease right away. Even though you've engaged in wax play before, don't presume your partner is all right. When wax-playing, always use a safe vocabulary.
