Status: offline 		We want to include hot wax play in our sessions, but are unsure of what type to use that won't permanently scar. We have a few shops around and one has candles in them, but to be honest, I don't trust those places to have the right kind, they sell 50 Shades products for their BDSM! That alone gives me pause.....

What is the best type to use?

Melt a bit and check out how hot it is on a relatively insensitive place before applying it to nipples or genitals.

There are also candles made and marketed specifically for this purpose to be found online or in sex shops.

Status: offline 		A crock pot and blocks of plain old paraffin without coloring are best by my experience. You can set the temperature perfectly and it lets you use as little or as much as you want. You can even ladle it on.

Colored candles all burn at different temps and as Steven mention, bees was is too hot for most people.

Status: offline 		I like doing a whole crock pot and you can add a crayolla crayon for colour. Crayolla is a natural colouring and has a low melt point so nice and safe.

Also look out for hot massage candles. They are more a sensual thing but they are good for people who are extra sensitive to heat. You don't need to peel the wax off after because its lanolin and so massages into the skin.

Another one is a pack of crayolla crayons peeled of paper and a lit candle firmly secured near to your subject. Dip the tip of the crayon in the flame and directly onto your subject. You can get really artistic with this and do all sorts of lovely body wax art. The subject says it feels like they are being branded (but its really not very hot).

Status: offline 		Thanks, these are some really good ideas. I never heard of the crayola one, but it sounds like a lot of fun, also. I am a Rehab Therapist, so I don't know why I didn't think of Paraffin to use, we have a wax melter at work for Arthritic applications and such. Crock pot sounds easier and cheaper to get though.

Don't use birthday candles. For my birthday one year my friends dripped the wax from the candles on my cake. It also dripped flame. Oops. Just a little burn

Side note: hot wax on fresh welts confuses the nerve endings and is delicious

We used to use the jar candles and they were a lot of fun. I have also had them use a crock pot with paraffin and a ladle. You want a soft wax that will melt at lower temps to play with. And test them out before pouring them all over someone. My friend and I found some Hannuka candles and wondered if they would be fun to play with. So we dripped a little tiny drop on my forearm. That is all it took to realize they were NOT the kind of candles to play with and yes I still have the scar.

Figures my little masochista would mention pouring hot wax on welts... she is such a pain puppy! They say it is good practice to try stuff out on yourself before you do it to someone else so you have good working knowledge of it. But I confess, I never beat myself into welts and drenched them in hot wax. I can only vaguely imagine how it stimulates the already tender nerve endings creating an entirely different sensation. I'll just take her word for it.


My grandma had a bees wax candle burning in front a statue of Jesus. I remember coating my fingers with it and playing with the wax as a kid. I didn't remember it being intolerable. Being a sadist seeking to play on the edge, I did test bees wax on myself because people said it was hotter. More pain more better right? . . . WRONG . . . I scalded the shit outta' myself. So I don't use it or recommend it.

But that said, what was your friend's query? Somebody might be able to help you with that in here if you ask. The thread is bumped now: why not?

We use the white religious candles - they're cheap, so they have a low melting point.

Status: offline 		I have the best hot water bottle burn on here; what a size, hole and scar it left. The thing with lurgy (CFS M.E) is you don’t always wake up. Then there was that time I burnt my hand with bitumen.

Anyway my point is burns hurt and they can leave a scar and a bit of a hole ( I have a few it took 10 years for the hot water bottle burn on my shin to disappear- I like my hot water bottle you know can never find the correct wench), and candle wax is not dissimilar to bitumen (tar or pitch or whatever you lot call it) and it will continue to burn after the outside has cooled.

Simplest way is really to see what candles you have/ or been recommended by the above and start with dripping a few bits on your hand or forearm. I am sure I my partner along time ago and friends had a wax frenzy at V and I started it as I like wax

Don’t go for the blootering someone’s breasts regions with it until you have thouroughy tested it/and drip run size, and stay away from the private regions.

You may have it run down their body and cool when it reaches there - I wouldn’t

I think most of us here have dripped candle wax over ourselves and its strangle nice sensation, well at least I think so. Burns and scarring are not and Ive no time for branders or those putting their cigarettes out on an objector creature of wretch.

Hell buy a hot water bottle I regularly burn/blister myself with that cuddly demon of temptation on a regular basis.

The melting point of all candles will be different - so always test thoroughly.

ML, what can I do for you, Hon? I've got a bunch of posts out there about wax, but if you were unable to find your answer through the search feature, I'm more than happy to help you out on anything related to wax. Everything from simple drips, to turning people into their own candelabra, to the "let's make art" kind of stuff. It's not difficult and I can teach anybody how to do it.

I disagree. I learnt about Crayola being a safe melting crayon years ago at our first kinkfest. I did my own research and discovered they are made (at least in the UK) of paraffin wax and the same natural colorings used in their popular face paints. Whilst some natural colorings can still have a high melt point, none of the colors used in Crayola crayons do.

I’ve used them for years. I’ve created some fabulous skin canvas with them and I’ve never burnt anyone or had anyone have a skin reaction to them. I’ve also made hundreds of colorful candles with them.
