Last week, we took a peek at using heat during temperature play. Today, we will look at the flip side \u2013 COLD (the different methods plus some safety tips).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

WHY PLAY WITH COLD?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

The same reason we tinker with heat \u2013 we play with the body\u2019s neuroreceptors to cause arousal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s especially fun to combine them in unpredictable ways, which can be enjoyable for anyone on any end of the kink scale. Add other forms of BDSM practices (like sensory deprivation), and you have a sure-fire equation for an unforgettable night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

WHERE SHOULD YOU ADD COLD?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Anywhere really. I can\u2019t think of anywhere that would be off limits (except the eyeballs!). Erogenous zones are great targets but there are a few exceptions when it comes to safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

WHAT CAN YOU USE?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

1. ICE CUBES<\/strong><\/span> <\/span>\u2013 This is what you probably think of when it comes to tingly temperature play. Running a cube along your partner\u2019s skin can be quite pleasurable (especially if you\u2019re already hot from foreplay). Giving extra time to<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAFETY<\/strong> \u2013 Ever stick your tongue to something frozen? Well, think of that but on other parts of the body. Never use ice straight out of the freezer. Let it melt a bowl for a few minutes until it\u2019s slick and smooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, some people like to stick it up the bum or vagoo…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But did you know that ice can sometimes melt into sharp edges? <\/strong>It can also cause damage if left against the skin for too long (even longer than 5 minutes can be bad). The internal membranes of the body are quite delicate.<\/strong> I would stay with external <\/em>use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. SEX TOYS<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 Sticking your (non-electric) metal, glass, ceramic, or porcelain sex toys a bowl of ice water can recreate the same sensations as ice cubes, but WAY safer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAFETY<\/strong> \u2013 Some people suggest leaving your sex toys in the freezer, but that should be left for more experienced people who know their preferences and limits (e.g. metal sex toys take on and retain temperatures like crazy!) A bowl of ice water will do the trick just fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. COLD IN THE BATHROOM<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 A cool bath or shower will make people squeal. Nice after you\u2019ve worked up a sweat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. SWEET TREATS<\/strong> <\/span><\/span>\u2013 Ice cream or popsicles can make your skin tingle, but they also play with the sense of taste. Run any cold foods along the skin and lick it up after! HOWEVER \u2026 Never put sweet things near the vagina. It could trigger a yeast infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. WEATHER<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 Mother nature can be the biggest Domme. Wait until she drops some snow \u2026 and then drop your partner in a fluffy drift.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

If you’re going to do some sexy polar bear dipping, you stay in for literally SECONDS. No more.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

SAFETY<\/strong> – Keep these antics to only a couple minutes<\/strong>, otherwise you risk exposure or hypothermia. After, get inside pronto and warm up. Also, don\u2019t do this if there\u2019s any wind chill or very low temperatures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

6. MEDICINAL THINGS<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 Cooling rubs for joints or aching muscles, menthol creams, cooling itch lotions, after sun gels etc.  No prescription stuff though, just over the counter. Don\u2019t forget to read the safety tips provided with the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

7. TINGLE GEL<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 There are sex-oriented products that are specifically made for cold temperature play. Some are strictly for external use, some (like cooling lubricants) can be used internally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

8. COOLING MASSAGE OILS<\/strong><\/span><\/span> \u2013 Cool down your lotions and oils in a bowl of ice water and THEN apply. So much fun. Or, you can buy the same thing but with a cooling agent added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
