Some Like it Hot, Some Like it Cold

Temperature Play

Temperature play is the solution you've been searching for if you want to warm up the bedroom. You have a wide range of possibilities for temperature foreplay, from passionate heat to cool chills. It is easily customizable for anyone and may be as basic or complex as required. This article will provide you with a wealth of information on how to use temperature in your activities, whether your goal is to heat or extraordinary objects.

What is Temperature Play?

Temperature play is "a type of sensation play that uses hot and cold objects or substances on the body for sensual exploration," according to Katy Thorn, a writer for LELO. Although temperature play may seem daunting, anyone can learn how to use it, regardless of expertise level. According to Kinkly, the purpose of temperature play is to elicit a sensory reaction by stimulating neuroreceptors. Everything from heating or cooling temperature-retentive toys to as easy as dragging an ice cube across bear skin can accomplish this.

A mainstay of BDSM, temperature play can be modified to suit any level of comfort or ability. To provide an additional element of surprise while playing with hot and cold, some people prefer to use blindfolds or shackles when engaging in temperature play. However, how you want your session to proceed is entirely up to you.

Where to Get Started? 

The goal of temperature play is to stimulate your senses. It's simple and safe to do alone or with a friend at home. Playing with temperature can be done alone or with a partner, with or without toys, and with DIY projects or products designed specifically for temperature play. When it comes to experimenting with hot and cold, the possibilities are practically limitless.

Thorn suggests using ice or freezing fruit or vegetables, especially those that contain a lot of water, and then holding them in your mouth or moving the frozen foods along your skin, paying particular attention to the more sensitive areas.

Things to Keep in Mind:

Although experiencing heat or cold might elicit exhilarating reactions, it's crucial to remember that temperatures shouldn't be too high or low. Always test the product you're using in advance to ensure the temperature is ideal, regardless of how you choose to play. Talk to your spouse in advance as well; it should be enjoyable rather than unpleasant.

Additionally, make sure you only use skin-safe and intimately appropriate products. Although each candle has a different melting point, candle wax can be an entertaining instrument for temperature experimentation. Choose one that has been shown to be skin-safe to prevent potentially excruciating burns instead of utilizing any you may have lying around the house.

Product Recommendations:

• Massage candles can be enjoyable for both novices and specialists. An excellent choice is an afterglow massage candle. They have a subtle aroma and are safe for the skin because they are made with a coconut and soy wax mixture. Thanks to its spout, transferring the candle from the container into your palm or onto your lover is simple.
• Warming massage oils are another excellent option for people who wish to create that spark without using real fire. Massage oils have many different smells and, occasionally, tastes. The four distinct flavors of Exsens Of Paris Warming Massage Oil are all based on your favorite tropical beverages. Just by being applied, the oil will warm things up, but the warming effects will be enhanced when it comes into contact with the skin.
• If you want to cool things down a little, try using a lubricant with cooling properties. System JO lubricants come in a range of anal-friendly cooling lubricant alternatives and are incredibly smooth without being sticky. In addition to making things go smoothly, JO Premium Cooling Lubricant is made to give you an extra cooling feeling. To increase the cool factor, try chilling it in the refrigerator before using it.
• Try the On Ice Buzzing and Cooling Female Arousal Oil if you're a hot person or want to give yourself or a friend chills. When applied directly to the body's more sensitive areas, ON ICE, which is made from a blend of oils that include the highly stimulating components peppermint and cinnamon, will make you shudder with pleasure.
• Many gadgets can assist when you're ready to move on to something a bit hotter (or colder, depending on your taste). You or your significant other can experience all the positive emotions you desire with a vibrator that incorporates heating technology. The Elegance Opulent and the Elegance Posh, for example, include a heat feature that raises their temperature to 42 degrees Celsius (107.6 Fahrenheit).
• Metal and glass items can also be heated or cooled for a titillating effect. Toys made of metal and glass let you experiment with various textures in addition to temperature. Mystim Gmbh offers a variety of metal toys, from smooth to ribbed, appropriate for temperature play. Among other items in their portfolio, the Thin Finn was specially created with temperature play in mind. Before using it, try heating it or putting it in the refrigerator.
• Three different-sized anal plugs that may be heated or cooled for play are included in the Crystal Tapered Kit for glass products appropriate for temperature play. Glass objects can be heated most easily by immersing them in warm, not hot, water for a few minutes. You can either put them in your refrigerator or use cold water to chill them.

When it comes to temperature play, you have more choices than merely selecting hot or cold feelings. There are goods and methods to assist you in getting the greatest outcome, whether you want to try alone or with a partner.

Always play cooperatively, particularly while adjusting the temperature. Test the products beforehand to ensure they are comfortable for both you and your spouse. You desire neither too much heat nor too much cold. Take all the guessing out of the game by carefully considering product applications and temperatures in advance.

Enjoy yourselves!
