There are so many methods of wax application, from torch and drip, to paintbrush, to drip ect. Each method has its own safety guidelines. I use a mix of soy and paraffin, paraffin wax has more structure and gets hard, where soy is more oil. Both have a low temp so both are normally safe when used appropriately, meaning dripped from a reasonable distance from the body. I think everyone really does create their own method after playing for a while. Me personally I use a barrier oil/gel on the skin to make removal easier as well as to protect the clients skin. Some people don't. When dripping I use low temp candles that are soy based because I like the run of the wax, you will have to play with it and figure out what you like best for you. There are a ton of resources online about Wax Play and many safety topics regarding it.
I like rubbing down with warm coconut oil...then using Marys soy candles.
After dripping the wax then rub it in ..it blends into the oil and leaves hardly any flakes or mess. And makes the skin silky
I don't indulge in wax play much but daaaaammmnnn this pic is HOT!

Thanks for this recommendation! I'll look into it.

I prefer to warm the area up with some mild impact play, although once you have a feel for a submissive’s tolerance, sometimes you can forego. Height from which you’re dripping is critical. Too far away and the wax has sufficiently cooled to not stick. Too close and you risk a burn. Comes down to knowing your bottom and their likes/dislikes.
Just my 2?
