VANCOUVER, Canada – Candle wax play is an enduring practice in the BDSM community. A moderate form of temperature play, it’s growing in popularity among the larger population of lovers, as well.

According to Juliana W., founder of Sex Talk About, “Once you get the basics of safety and proper handling down, candle wax play can be one of the most elegant erotic experiences you will ever have.”

But, Penguin Pete warned in an STA blog post, “If done wrong, wax play can cause burns severe enough to require medical attention.”

Safety is part of the reason Sex Talk About added erotic candles to its online boutique.

“Here at Sex Talk About, we review a wide range of sensual products and noticed there was a shortage of quality wax play candles in the market,” Juliana said. “Therefore, we decided to create our signature candle. It is soy-based, paraffin-free, has a safe drip temperature and is incredibly easy to remove from skin.”

The six-inch-tall candles come in four colors and retail for $18.50 apiece.

In addition to wax play candles, the boutique offers erotic massage candles.

“Our Massage Candle is made with a mix of nourishing ingredients that keep moisture in the skin for a long period of time,” Juliana said. “The oil will not dry up after a couple of massaging strokes.”

The candles are infused with organic ylang-ylang and hemp oil for an aphrodisiac touch. They retail for $28.71.

All Sex Talk About products are made in-house with natural ingredients.
