Candles are commonly used in sensory play to enhance erotic experiences, set a mood, and introduce sensations of heat or wax play. Wax play involves dripping hot wax onto the skin of a consenting partner to create unique sensations and sensory experiences. The heat from the melted wax can stimulate the skin, heighten arousal, and evoke a range of pleasurable sensations. Different types of candles can be used in wax play, with low-temperature candles specifically designed for this purpose to minimize the risk of burns or injuries. Safety is paramount when engaging in wax play, and it is essential to use caution, communicate openly with your partner, test the temperature of the wax on a safe surface before applying it to the skin, and avoid sensitive areas or areas with hair. Proper preparation, communication, and aftercare are crucial when incorporating candles and wax play into scenes to ensure a safe, consensual, and enjoyable experience for all parties involved.
