I wonder have any of you ladies ever though about introducing candles to your love play. I don’t mean as a means for masturbation. The long-standing joke about chicks using candles does not necessarily refer to inserting said candle into your vagina. On the contrary, it should mean lighting the candle and using the hot wax as a sensual means to spice up your foreplay and get your guy/girl going harder and hotter than ever. Hot wax is an intensifier, and is perfect to use to enter into a serious orgasmic phase.
Obviously you can’t just go and pick up a lit candle and start pouring pools of boiling hot wax all over your partner’s naked body whilst in the throes of foreplay. You might find it a good idea to first discuss this option, and whether you or they are comfortable with the act. As with all things sexual it must be consensual and sanity and safety are tantamount. Hot wax play is considered edge play and can be dangerous if misapplied. What you want is for the hot wax experience to be deeply erotic not deeply painful.
Any wax type can be used but you should use a wax such as paraffin wax, which has a low melting point and therefore is not as likely to burn the skin. Also take care with colored or perfumed candles as they can cause serious skin irritations. There are three different methods of using hot wax, dripping, pouring and painting, with the aim being to encourage squirms and moans of delight and heightening the sexual experience. My preference is definitely for dripping and seems to be the most widely practiced application in this sport. It is also a good idea to keep a bowl of ice handy, for those spots that might just be a little too hot or to use as a contrast, hot and cold!
A candle is a good tool to use for dripping hot wax, and even emergency household candles can be used and you can drip hot wax anywhere on the body below the neck. Depending on how hard the candle is determines its melting temperature and it should be held at least 18 inches above the skin impact point. Test a small spot first and if it is comfortable you know that you are on safe ground. If you are going to be dripping the wax on the more intimate parts of the body, perhaps it might be a good idea to shave or remove any body hair. It is no fun ripping out your pubic or underarm hair in an effort to remove the hardened wax from your body. Try to steer away from colored or beeswax candles: they have higher melting points and a beeswax candle has such a high melting that a drop of wax from the candle can have a flame attached to it when it drops from the candle.
Remember above all that if you are going to indulge in hot wax play, it must be consensual as well as safe.
Have fun ladies, more tips soon.
