Try a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/whos-on-top-power-dynamics-in-a-threesome\/\">powerplay dynamic<\/a>, where one partner is in control (providing sensation) and the other is giving up control (who is receiving stimulation).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sensory play can also include some pain (if you are both interested), which also falls under the BDSM umbrella. And the fear of pain or getting hurt during intense painful sensory play is a part of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/edging-tips-for-better-orgasms\/\">edge play<\/a>, which some people find extremely pleasurable.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How To Explore Sensation Play at Home\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If sensation play sounds like something you&#8217;d be interested to explore with your partner, then here are a few different play techniques you want to try:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try Sensory Deprivation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/feel-more-with-less-increase-your-pleasure-with-sensory-deprivation\/\">Sensory deprivation<\/a> is one of the most beginner-friendly ways to explore sensation play. It involves taking away one or more of your senses. When one of your senses is taken away, the others can become enhanced, which can actually create a very intense sensory experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One way to take away one of the senses is to use <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/intima-silk-blindfold-review\/\">blindfold<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to take away sight. You can use a satin or silk blindfold for that (which is pretty sexy on its own), or improvize with a t-shirt, scarf, or tie.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-34714 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/intima-silk-blindfold-review.jpg\" alt=\"intima silk blindfold review\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/intima-silk-blindfold-review.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/intima-silk-blindfold-review-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/intima-silk-blindfold-review-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way to engage in sensory deprivation is to remove hearing. It can be highly erotic to enjoy partnered sex without hearing your partner&#8217;s moans and other sounds, only observing their reactions with your eyes. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Try earplugs or noise-cancelling headphones or earphones.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may even consider using a ball gag to take away your partner&#8217;s ability to speak as well as engage in some light-breath play.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Breath play, or erotic asphyxiation, is a high-risk sensory deprivation that can offer pretty intense sensations, but can also be dangerous if not performed correctly. As a beginner, we recommend starting with something lighter, like a ball gag.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn Up the Heat (or Cool It Down)<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Temperature play is another way to explore sensation play at home, and it&#8217;s super easy to do. Temperature play involves experimenting with hot and cold temperatures for pleasure.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/flickering-touch-massage-candle-review\/\">massage oil candles<\/a> are a perfect place to start for beginners. The melted wax can be used as a massage oil and the temperature of the wax is mild enough to be soothing on the skin. Also, who doesn&#8217;t love a good <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/full-body-sensual-massage\/\">erotic massage<\/a>?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-34709 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/flickering-touch-massage-candle-review.jpg\" alt=\"Flickering touch massage candle review\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/flickering-touch-massage-candle-review.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/flickering-touch-massage-candle-review-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/flickering-touch-massage-candle-review-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way to incorporate temperature play is to use play around with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/beginners-guide-to-wax-play\/\">wax play<\/a>, which involves using low-temperature wax candles. This is a more advanced technique and involves placing dripping hot wax on the body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And when you want to cool off, use ice cubes! Drag them across your partner&#8217;s skin, or pop them in your mouth <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and explore your partner&#8217;s body with your mouth.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also cool off some of your sex toys for a fun change-up. Toys made of glass and steel like dildos and butt plugs are perfect for ice play. Pop them in the fridge for a few hours, or into a freezer for a few minutes (test them on your hands first to avoid any chance of ice burn) and then use them in the solo or with a partner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Engage Your Taste Buds<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When it comes to sensory play, we can&#8217;t forget food! Engaging your taste buds with various food items during sexual play can be a very fun experience.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Think whipped cream, figs, strawberries, chocolate (think <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/do-aphrodisiacs-really-exist\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">aphrodisiacs<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), or popping candy. Enjoy these foods together with your partner while you have sex, let your partner eat it off your body, or eat it off theirs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One thing to keep in mind with food play is to avoid using it on the vulva and in the vagina. The sugars can very easily disrupt the microflora and unbalance a healthy vaginal pH, but there are plenty of other erotic body parts to use food on.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Painful Pleasure\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you enjoy a little bit of pain with your pleasure, then another way to explore sensation play is through pleasurable pain, which can be created in many forms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A great start for beginners is to try a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pinwheel<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. These tiny tools look intimidating, but they are totally safe to use. The spikes are usually sharp enough to give you a tingly sensation, but not sharp enough to damage the skin (unless you press really, really hard!). <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For some, it may just feel soothing and relaxing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-37389 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/what-does-bdsm-mean_850x425.jpg\" alt=\"what does bdsm mean\" width=\"850\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/what-does-bdsm-mean_850x425.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/what-does-bdsm-mean_850x425-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/what-does-bdsm-mean_850x425-768x384.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way to explore painful pleasure is with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/all-about-impact-play\/\">impact play<\/a>, like spanking, whipping or flogging. You can start with bare-handed spanking, then level up using a leather glove, and then incorporate impact accessories <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to your spanking repertoire. L<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ightweight floggers are popular for<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> whipping and tickling your partner and they don&#8217;t hurt as much as a rigid paddle might.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another tool you might consider is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">nipple clamps<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. If you enjoy nipple stimulation, nipple clamps can add a lot of painful, yet pleasurable, sensations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are You Ticklish?\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For those who are fans of a more gentle sensation play, a great way to explore different sensations is with <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a soft tickler<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You can start the exploration using your fingers alone and<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> lightly dragging your fingertips over your partner&#8217;s naked skin. You can also create a similar sensation using a feather tickler.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Since your curiosity has led you to this article, hopefully you&#8217;ve found a few new ideas to try.
