Wax and ice
Two temperatures on the same skin, and one of you never knows which is coming.
How to do it
- 01
Buy candles made for this — low-melt paraffin or soy wax. Scented candles and beeswax burn too hot. Put down an old sheet, and try a drop on your own forearm before anything touches the other person.
- 02
Blindfold on, and stay on the chest, stomach, thighs and back. The higher you hold the candle the cooler it lands — start half a metre up and only come closer if you are asked to.
- 03
Switch to ice without saying so. The alternation between hot and cold is the whole point, and it only works while the order cannot be guessed.
Wax has no business on the face, in hair, or on the genitals, and a candle that has burned a long time is hotter than the one you tested. Keep cold water to hand: if the skin still stings after you have cooled it, that is a burn and not a sensation.
